Beaumont Barn Find (sort of)
Permalink  

Barbara and I have been "RVing", at a local campground 8 miles from our house...biggrin   In converstaion with the owner, Bert tells me, he has a "old car".. He bought it in 1976, and used it as a daily driver, when he worked construction, out West..  Used to drag race it, and restored it in 76 with velvet and white trim lol  In 1990 He restored interior to white   "George" send him free info on car, and pages of cars built same day... He had it appraised at forty two or seven last year.  Car has not been "out" in seven years.. He stores it in a modern barn/workshop close to the campground.... He will show me the info from George tomorrow   He would like Fred to decode the tag for him   Carl

Looks like that barn didn't have a leaky roof. Very nice. I think I have come across more cars while rving than any other time. I guess you have the time then to talk and to read. I have now sold my motorhome so haven't come across any more interesting cars but life is still good.  Miss that 454, she was a cruiser.

Nice, but 42000.00 is way too much. We have a 67 Sd big block 4spd locally for 35000.00 OBO. Nice to see another saved.
