I have to drive by this house everyday for the last 20 years and looked at this 1968 L-79 Ralley Red/Red interior 4spd Vette. I have tried to buy the car for years. The complete frame and drivetrain stored in old tractor trailer.

At least it's not rusting.

Might sink into the ground though.

Can you imagine how many critters live inside or underneath that poor car?

-------Charlie,,,As for the rusting comment,,,I can only imagine the windshield posts and the birdcage. Ill bet there isnt much of either one left. That actually may be the reason that no progress whatsoever has been made!!!........Bill S

The birdcage and windshield posts are in good shape (First thing I look at every couple years). When the car was torn apart in the 80s it was a complete running car. The guy just isnt a car guy lost interest. I would be more worried about the body fiberglass sitting outside without any structial support from the frame for all those years.

That's what I was thinking about too.
Where it hasn't cracked,it's probably stretching beyond it's original shape.

Such a shame but a good thing that the drivetrain's out of the weather..
A dirty trick no doubt but a couple Mrs. Kravitz type calls complaining of the 'old abandonded wreck' may make the guy think differently next time you drop in w/ cash in hand?.
So what's w/ the ghost hiding behind the bird-bath?.
