Re: [Amc-list] Weird

[Wrambler242@xxxxxxxxxxx]

He might of told you no one had asked about them, but I can asure they left the buildings by the droves over the years.
When he sold out as a dealer the place was full to the rafters.
There was even one of the unobtanium 66-69 rt side 2 door hardtop American quarters up there!
I tried to score that when I bought mine, but someone had beat me to it.
You would have needed 5-6 24 ft trucks to empty it when he first shut down!

Ah, those were the days!

He's 80 now and walks with canes and knee braces. He refused knee replacement surgery.
