Old Cars Weekly Wanted 1972 & 1973

[jimm]

Hello all,

I'm looking for an issue of Old Cars Weekly newspaper from 1972 or 1973 featuring an article on an abandoned ranch in Novato, California.  The ranch contained old cars including rare Frazer convertibles and early Lincolns.  I believe the article and photos were in a column "Somewhere West of Laramie" by Tim Howley.  I would like to buy the one issue but not sure of the date so might buy a whole year of back issues if necessary.  Or if someone has a collection of Old Cars Weekly and can tell me what issue the article appeared in, that would be a huge help.  Thanks very much for any suggestions you might have for me.   Jim

Hi, Jim. Here's the public contact info for Tim Howley. I've included a link below. Perhaps you could get in touch with Tim for his recollections about this long-ago Old Cars Weekly article and the ranch. John
