Got the 73 hornet...

[Tom Jennings <tomj@xxxxxxx>]

I bought that dead-motor 73 Hornet today. Complete, if the engine
wasn't ruined it would be a fair driver. Interior's not bad.
$250. Got it home without incident. Makes some unpleasant noises
now though.

The spare tire is likely an unmolested original; Firestone Deluxe
Champion, 6.95-14, whitewall. The mould line and flashing is still
present -- this tire never rolled even once on the ground. Looks
like new except for dust and a rust stain, from rainwater
collecting in the spare tire well.  Jack, handle, holddown all
there. I'll get more tire details if anyone cares.

Car was well-kept for a long time, until it got run down probably
after sale by the good owner, so it might have a lot of original
details. Some things though like the P.S. pump look like
replacements (blue body). 75323 miles on the odometer. Probably
correct.
