This is pretty cool

Well this is just a little short story that any car guy will find awesome. So here it is. I was up at my grandparents place last weekend. My granddad had just obtained some land and my mom had previously told me that there were a few cars on the property that she thought I should look at. She also thought one was a mustang. Mind you these cars have been sitting in a field for more than 25 years SO I didn't exactly have high expectations. Well I get out there only to discover that there was quiet a few notable cars out there! There was a 68 Torino GT (the one my mom thought was a mustang), 55 Bellair, 69 Malibu, and a 68/69 nova. The nova and Mali were pretty rough but the torino and bellair were amazing! The tornino was white with blue striping with nothing but some surface rust. The bellair was a little worse off but still in tact. Engines, Exhaust, Trans, and no body damage on either. So the after all this looks like we'll be pulling the Torino and Bellair out for a closer inspection (they both had overgrowth on them) Pretty cool story wouldn't you say?
