Back Alley B-Bodies.
Dave, Here's a few from last summer.
I'd heard a rumor about a dude with a stash of old B-bodies somewhere in the city of Edmonton.Just by flukenstance I happened upon them.I knocked on the door of the owner, and found out that he used to be a Drag racer "back in the day" racing Max wedges and the like.
He hoarded these cars when they became avaliable, to use as future projects, but now he's way too old to do anything with them.
And of course...they're not for sale.
Good thing the climate keeps them from rusting!
