[AMC-List] Desert Trip

[JOE FULTON <piper_pa20@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I just got back last night from a 800 mile trip to the
Nevada desert to pick up a 63 Classic wagon which was
an Ebay purchase.  The seller gave the location as
"middle of nowhere" and she was right on.

Great scenery and I met some nice folks, believe it or
not.  

The wagon is a 63 Classic 770 with tan bucket seat
interior and it has the console.  It does have the 196
aluminum block six and auto tranny.  I'll be cleaning 
pounds of desert dust and litter out of the interior
today.  

The car is for sale for $750 for the near term before
I put any money into it.  If you want a "car of the
year" old station wagon that needs no body work, just
paint, then this is the deal for you.  Grille has the
typical 63 rash, but is not as bad as many.  Bumpers
are rust free but not perfect.

Needs windshield.  There is a little rust in the lower
tailgate.

I also bought a 64 Classic wagon from the same seller
and am making arrangements to part it out on my way
back from my Bonneville trip in mid-August.  The car
has had parts scavenged from it and it would be very
difficult for me to trailer it home (missing rear end
unit and front spindles).  It is red and appears to
have a great tail gate.  I'll be taking the front
fenders at least, tailgate, interior parts, and some
engine stuff (196 cast iron) as well as the gas tank.
