Re: N.C lawn art
Great to meet y'all, too. BTW - folks, Fine 59's wife, the beautiful Victoria, seems perfectly normal! Go figure! His '59 is, indeed, fine - great car. And he hooked me up with a couple of new coozies that are exactly caffeine-free Diet Coke size.
Damn shame about that '60. Not only a tri power car, but currently seems to be in pretty good condition. Hope someone does something before it rots into the ground.
Hope we can hang out more next time you're in town

Re: N.C lawn art
I drove by our local salvage yard last night and out front was a 65 Ford F250 4x4. I slowed down to check it out, then stopped and looked it over. Nice clean body, 352, 4 speed, nice interior. Dropped off for scrap. They won't sell it, I called them this morning. It will get crushed, as the price of metal has turned the yard into a scrap metal yard.
