My Summer Vacation, 2017... Junkyard Hunting, Family and Carlisle.

Yes Dave, it's the same car. Sold from Twin Willows Auto a few years back. The guy who bought it lives in Slippery Rock right around the corner from me. It doesn't move much lol
It seems to have been sitting in the same place all summer. Does he always park in the same spot?
 
My apologies to the Pittsburgh members, I really did want to connect with several of you... I just couldn't seem to get out of the hunt and the shipping long enough to do so.
 
Jeff, when you leave Carlisle, swing back towards Erie and check this out. You may even be able to afford it.

No Reserve: 1975 Imperial LeBaron

Must not be much happening at Carlisle???

Not one picture posted yet or a story presented......
 
I wonder where he got all the brake parts????

From the ad:
  • Turned front rotors, new front & rear pads, & repacked wheel front bearings
  • Resleeved and rebuilt master cylinder in June 2017
  • Replaced front brake calipers and hoses, cleaned and lubed rear calipers
All he did was replace the pads on the rear
The fronts are no big deal.
You're stuck with the rest of the rear brakes. Good luck.
 
Are you home yet?
Oh yes... just thinking silly thoughts... Management was too happy I returned without acquiring a new car... wait until she sees my coffin of parts come home. I probably should warn her, but why ruin the surprise.
 
Thursday morning, blown out back and every time I drove the car it was raining... best plan... brush-less car wash... I sprang for the "deluxe" $9...

Had to crush a wagon too... you could put beer cans through the floor at traffic stops... used that once while pulled over. Floor mats are a fine invention.

To my understanding those must have been the early bird prices... both cars were $2k more on Friday.
