Over four years inactive for this thread, who has some new finds to share?

I just found a 70 firebird esprit. Not a very cool story but it popped up on marketplace late on a Monday night. I messaged him right away. He had one guy in front of me on Tuesday morning, the first guy passed hemming and hawwing. I left work early at like 11am and went to look at it. My buddy met me there and got there before me. He looked me square in the eye and said "your buying this" LOL. It was a local towing company that got it that had done service on the car in the 70's and 80's. The car has been sitting since 1996 in a garage about 5 miles from me. It is castillian bronze with custom sandelwood interior and a 350 two barrel auto car with AC, power steering but no power brakes! I'm gonna keep this one a while for sure. There is some bad rot in the pass 1/4 but thats really the only real bad spot. So that will get fixed shortly. I replaced the gas tank and squared away the fuel system last saturday and put new master and brakes in the front and flushed the braking system yesterday. In about an hour I am going to take it out.

How about an aircraft hangar find?

'69 RAIII 4 sp Carousel Red Judge. No engine or trans.

I bought it out of north Texas (Lubbock?) in 2006 or so. Guy responded to an ad I placed online looking for muscle cars. I was in Virginia at the time, but he wouldn't send pics. Said I could have it for $5k, but if he had to take pics it was going on eBay and I could bid on it just like anyone else. I rolled the dice and send him $. Picked it up a few months later.

Eventually sold it to someone who restored it. It's back on the road now.
