Landed a barge in the back yard yesterday.

Brought home the 70 Pontiac yesterday and it seems a little bigger than those A-bodies that usually sit there. Will take a look at it in a week or so as Im headed out of town for a few days. With Clints guidance I will try find what can be salvaged from it.

No problem, I have a partner in this and she says only one in the side yard at a time.

Looks almost drivable.

Definitely noticing a difference between what makes a parts car on the west coast vs a parts car on the east coast. 

That one looks salvageable vs rotted into the ground and only removable in pieces.

So I have to ask the question, as I always hate to see another one taken out of service:  Is it a reasonable candidate to put back on the road?

Of course it's always good to supply parts to keep others on the road, but I can't help myself from asking anyhow... smile

Not in my opinion. For this model and what you can buy a decent one for dont think it would make sense. Frame and a few small things might be its best features.
