Title: Oval Rag
Post by: Matt on September 20, 2004, 07:30:59 PM

So my wife spotted an Oval rag in some dudes driveway a couple months ago and we have been trying to catch him at home ever since. Well yesterday we finally did. He was quite happy to tell me it is for sale, for way too much money IMO. it's a 57, painted bright pink (total 80's style resto), has a non-running 1776 covered in leaves and 1/2\" dust ,wide five wanna-be fuchs,  kinda nasty tan interior, 40 ford taillights, rossi headlights. dechromed and has 1 piece windows. Needs brakes, (and a tastefull resto). he was asking $7500 for it and said if he didn't get that he would let it sit there some more and collect more dust.

If anyone is at all interested, I can give you the info to find it yourself. I didn't get his number as I thought he was askin way too much, and he was kinda arrogant....

I remember the car well from when I worked at Cal Imports. The guy was a total banger. To bad that would have been a good base for a resto
