well i aquired this car about 4 years ago when i was 19 from a friend of my dads. he gave me the car for helping him change out the rusty body on his 71 f250.. we had to go pick it up was about a 7 hour drive from coeur d alene idaho to mcminville orgon to get it but well worth it when we got there it was sitting up behind a barn where is sat for the previous 10 years. blackberry bushes had grown up to the wind shield and the rear was on blocks.
