Check to see if a TAG is on the BACK??

Get the numbers of the tag and goto your local DMV... or call a buddy who is a Cop. They can run the number in the computer!

WHAMMO you got a name and address!

Yes, I'd like to see a picture of this car.

madmartin22@yahoo.com

Thanks.

btw, I'm only about 150 miles from the car, but I will not be trying to buy it.

Its the right year and right colour for my dad's old one.

Right click save as-- email to mom to see.... I doubt it the location is way off and my dad's didn't have a hardtop.

Theres a 65-66 vert hanging behind a guys house around me.... no wait he added on to his house in front of it... and left it out back even though he put in a 2 car garage. The same old story--- its for when I get the time. Not for sale. It hasn't moved since I was in my first day of Grade 9. That means its been sitting for 16 years that I know of.

The first thing the owner is going to ask is what the heck was he doing looking through the hole and then taking pictures. Then he is going to have the storage company cover the hole so no one else will see the body in the fridge.

Then CF77 will be asked to leave the self storage area for being nosey and causing them more work...

Sounds like something I would do.
