I recognize this car now.
It is a canary yellow PH that someone had modified. It had a targa top. A few months ago I'd seen it on the H.A.M.B. message board in a discussion of customizing Conestoga wagons. Some guy had photo-shopped the front of this and pasted it onto the front of a Conestoga wagon as an idea for a rat rod.
It was clean in those photos but the dagmars and end pieces were missing from the front bumper; and, as I said, the top had been modified. It had one of those short black snap-on tops in those photos.
Can't really say I'm that sorry to see it go; it was a real horror story.Mike O'Handley, Cat Herder Third Class

Never mind,
I know those cars. My brother went up to check them out. I passed. Would have been more interested if they were closer but cost to haul them all the way up here would have exceeded what all three are worth in their current condition. He's got another halfway completed inside the garage. He wanted $22K for it. Ron's got a lot of rot work ahead of him.Mike O'Handley, Cat Herder Third Class
