OK, here it is. It started life as a Champion and was a running driveable car when it's little, 6cyl heart was yanked. But due to good fortune, the engine "upgrade" this time was a PLUS.

75K on the odo and I'm beginning to believe it. Sadly, it got less than ideal storage while it set the past decade, but it's mostly cosmetic deterioration that's resulted. You saw the trunk floor earlier and save for some surface rust under the carpets, it's one solid sweetie. []
Yes, it's bound for ebay. At least that was my intention when I adopted it. Just how much I'm gonna do to it before it's put up, I haven't decided yet. But probably I'll get it to run and stop and let it go at that.[^]
A Miss Marjorie Dale of Los Angeles was the original owner. I wonder if she's still alive?
