So far, I've been told it's not for sale. However, I drove by there today and they've been cleaning the place up. It and everything around it is gone and I don't see it there anywhere. The Ford truck next to it is on a different part of the lot, but no sign of the Fairlane. Don't know where it went, I'll have to get my "source" to check into it.

Sad, but true. If it wasn't for bad luck, I'd have none at all.

that is an amazing picture !!! that that much stuff can still be gathered in one working spot and have others stacked up like firewood in the background.. you can see two door bodies of all kinds everywhere .. i`d love to have that picture in a wall size blowup to hang in my shop..( and how many sentences can you write that has " that that " back to back .

Here's a couple of items of interest in my neighbors yard:
1971 LTD 429 4-V auto, console shift w/bucket seats, was Woody Andersons personal car.

A couple of Impalas he just hauled in.

But, now here's something to crow about!

A John Deere B tractor!

Definitely a '70-'71 Torino Cobra with 429 - no 428's in Cobras (or Cyclones) after 1969.
