So, keep your eyes open.

I'm kinda into "binders"(international harvester) stuff, and saw this pickup so I thought id snap a pic. As I did I saw a white regal along that fence behind it. I looked closer and it looked like it had a black grille. My interest peaked so I made the block for a closer look.

Through the fence.

I went across the street to ask about it. It was weird as it has Washington state plates on it and I am of course in Texas. The guy across the street told me it is a customer car. He bought it in Washington and drove it back . He said the owner has 35-40 cars and loan this one to a friend, and it came back with a rod knock. I asked if it might be for sale but the shop guy said the owner wanted it fixed. I'll keep checking back as the first guy I talked to who pointed me to the office said it had been sitting there since he started working there. I hope the ground doesn't reclaim it.

Has a nice paint job but the regal, limited and T badges, were all over the place. GTA wheels, t-tops and leather. Nice car. I'll be checking back to see about picking this machine up one of these days. They were talking about how rare a white limited with WO2 and ttops is. I guess that makes this one pretty rare, 1 of 1035 right haha.

That is what I'm putting in my car. One of the reasons id want this car. I do like leather. I'd rather have the 86 blue one with the tan leather even though this one Is in much better condition.

Sits in that field much longer and it won't have any frame, floor or brake lines left in it.

That was my first thought when I saw the Washington plates . I'll see if I can get the vin next time I'm over on that side of town.
