I know of plenty of hidden/sitting cars in my area, the problem is the people either wont let them go or they just wont answer the door. I know of a 70 challenger just sitting with surface rust, two 69 4spd roadrunners that are gutted and have been sitting since before i was born, and a few A body cars. And yes, i would like to know how much
