I'd live in it ..... What a great man cave it would be.

The aluminum will end up as scrap metal I fear.

That is what I was thinking too. The roof doesn't look like it is totally toast yet to ruin the interior. It would be a cool place. I would put it next to my shop and make a great place to chill. Keep it retro, I always wanted a bar space with booth sitting.

If someone near enough has the space it would make a great FCBO world headquarters. We could all kick in to save & move it.

Great idea I know there are a few Jersey boy members. Dave has that big barn full of cars.

Just rebuild it near an international airport and I'm in with a couple of bucks.

The Fodero Dining Car.
Arguably one of the most iconic Diner designs ever. Needs to be saved.

I wonder what became of our "FCBO world headquarter" building .....?

Matt I hear there are a lot of good old abandoned buildings in Detroit we could get for next to nothing. Detroit would be an appropriate location for a C Bodies HQ.

That could be taken several ways.

It would be too far away, too much money, and we don't have the room.

Probably but my thinking is Detroit not that long ago was the center of the automotive universe.

We are about an hour from that location. Already asked the wife if I could put it in the back yard next to the 300. Unfortunately, I've stretched the neighbor's patience with the two junkers I already have. These people have no vision!

These people have no vision!

Yes they do, they see an "eye sore"... dont you love that term? " Eye sore"...... They need to mind they're own business.

 

[Fratzog]

Dave are you suggesting that people actually should have property rights?

 

[polara71]

Of course ................ If the neighbor wants to complain, fine.... but I should have the right to tell him to F off and look the other way

 

[Fratzog]

I agree totally ... should have ... reality is the officious municipal bylaw inspector will be on your doorstep in a flash with his clipboard and citation in hand.

 

[polara71]

Gotta live in the right town and dabble in politics

 

[commando1]

Are you telling me that if a jerk next door junks up his yard next to mine I have to put up with it?
