Hudsy Wudsy Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Dale, do you have any idea how old the pavers are? I've never seen such variety of colors in a vintage road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1937hd45 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Can you get a hub cap off it, my Son in Law is missing one on his. For $200.00 it is proving to be a good daily driver. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalowed Bill Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 Sad as it is seeing the car in this condition, the ancient trees won't be replaced for generations. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zepher Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Unless the owner had agreed value insurance, another bad thing is the owner will get almost nothing for the car. Good to hear there were no injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8E45E Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 It would be a wheel weight. The tire would not be still holding air if that was a chipped/broken rim. Craig 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frededwarrds Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 As to the black object on the front rim. From where I am it appears to be electrical tape. He’ll need a lot more to fix the tree problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_Mack_CT Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 Made me think of 79 tornado that hit CT, damaging our air museum, and destroying a 41 Lincoln Continental that was stored up near the airport. Many vintage planes were damaged, I believe some are still being restored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
