Fielded Dart Swinger
"I found this 1970 Dodge Dart Swinger in one of my boss's fields. It's an original Hemi Orange and Black car, with numbers matching 340, pistol grip 4-speed and it has a Dana rear end. Complete car and actually saveable. I'm in the process of trying to negotiate a reasonable price."

Did this Caddy Belong to Aristotle Onassis?
"This is a 1959 Cadillac Fleetwood 75 Limo we found in a remote village in Serbia. It allegedly belonged to Greek shipping magnate Aristotle Onassis. The story goes that the car was bought by some guy from France, and as he was driving it home it broke down in Serbia (then Yugoslavia). Due to strict customs regulations, the car was confiscated as it failed to leave the country within 30 days.
It was later auctioned off, and the owner of this Cadillac also has a 1964 Impala Convertible, a 1971 Pontiac Firebird and a few other US cars, all in bad shape. Some time ago he chopped the roof off as he wanted to make a convertible, and then he abandoned the idea. The car has been sitting in the same place for years. The owner is not interested in selling any of the cars, at least not at a reasonable price. He asked 100,000 Euros for the Cadillac (about $140,000 US)."

'65 Buick Wildcat
"Here are some pics of a 1965 Buick Wildcat that I found. It belonged to a guy who had traded it for a "pimped" out Honda Civic to the widow of the previous owner. The car was immaculate until the guy died and then his widow took it out of the garage and let it sit in the yard for 10 years. The widow had let it get really bad. Mold, rust, rips, etc. I've purchased it and started working on it, slowly but surely!"
