See, that's why I never dust at home. I'm hoping to find a mint '70 Hemi 'Cuda under all that dust….

I don't get excited by a lot of American cars but that is indeed awesome.

I always take these reports with a rather large helping of skepticism...

So it sounds like the owner bought the car and then never drove it. Seems like he missed the point of owning the car.

Yeah, and the next guy who buys it probably won't drive it around either, because now it is worth a fortune.

He might have just forgot where he parked it. I have dreams about that kinda thing all the time.
Or maybe like all norwegian bachelor types he was a bit lax on cleaning up things.

I was talking to a guy at work tonight who is a Mustang enthusiast.

He said he heard of this, and that he's heard that some experts have checked the car over and everything may not match. The tires on it were manufactured in 1972 I guess, and a couple of other components may not be original.
