Default Re: HUCKLEBERRY HOUND

To my knowledge the car was not wrecked, but was sitting in the guy's backyard on a trailer for around 10+ years rusting away. The car had 1/4's tacked on, but never fully completed. The BE rear was narrowed and chromed, along with the rear springs, rollpan, etc.... Lots of chrome all over. There were several items that were taken off the car and installed the owner's daughter's car, ie; cowl hood, etc... So, there was really nothing left except what I typed above, and therefore the tags were removed and the body junked. If the owner had known to remove the firewall, he would have done so - he felt that the tags were sufficient to preserve the value/rarity.

Where/how the new owner found the so-called 'original body' in a junk yard is unknown.
