By dumb luck My brother was cruising Craig's list a few days ago and found my first car, the actual car not one like it, the car I bought at 12 years old with lawn mowing money I had saved for years

Well around 10 years ago I was losing my house and needed too buy a storage trailer for all my stuff, so the car was begruginly sold, well turns out the guy that bought it is now retired and moving to florida, car can't go with him, I sent several emails and he finally called me, remembered who I was, and said if I want it the car is mine and he will tell everyone it is sold

So today I borrowed a dealer tag and went with dad and picked her up , she still needs a lot of work but still runs and drives , but most important she is mine again and will not be sold again

 

That is so freaking cool!!! What a great thing to happen.

 

Yup I will be putting the parts lr3 for sale in a week then my 1946 cj2a , can't keep everything, plus deal I made with the boss

 

That is awesome...

 

That's completely awesome. My first car, a 1970 Ford LTD that my parents gave me to drive to college. Blue paint, blue vinyl top, blue vinyl interior, blue carpet, blue floor mats. Um . . . I don't think I want that one back. LOL

 

That's GREAT Tom!
Looks like he took decent care of it, I wasn't expecting an old Firebird when I first started reading! Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!!!

 

Fantastic Tom glad to see you got it. Does this mean you'll be getting to Roverson the rocks late to

 

Nope we are here but I forgot half my stuff at home ugh

The car needs a full restoration almost, needs rockers, quarters, rear wheel wells , rear shock towers, trunk pan, headliner, recover seats

But for now its OK cause its not going to get much worse and I can drive it as is

 

He just had a long term lease on the car.

 

Great story, great ending and nice hub caps!!!
