I like how they thoughtfully provided extra burnt garbage on the hood and roof!

For what I suspect they are asking it's the least they can do!

Maybe it was in a barn so they left the proof of a true barn find

As of late, fried 'birds seem to be a yearly theme...

Easiest way out of an underwater asset....

I had though at first was Milt Wood's old Bird.  But no Quarter Panel gas fill (among other differences).

anyone a copart member to confirm the masked vin?

anyone a copart member to confirm the masked vin?

As mentioned above, copart has the VIN as RM2310A170851, that "1" after the 23 has to be a copart typo and its likely V.

Only a guess: Just prior to the insurance lapsing its Wing was struck by lightening, which may be why it's AWOL.

Here is the V0A170851 back in 2003 at the DSAC / Chicagoland Mopar Connection meet in Chicago.     It was in Park Ridge, just north of Rosemont back then.    So it does not appear to have strayed far, if it all.

Different looking treatment of the black out on the nose cone...

Oh no!  Now I know the car and the owner, that's too bad, it was a very decent car that was really never driven.

Dave,
Since you know the owner can you find out what happened?
It may be something that the rest of us should watch out for like a trickle charger!

Word from the owner through a mutual friend is no identifiable cause, even with a private fire investigator.  Also lost a '68 Coronet convertible in the fire

WOW! I did not realize this was the same car! I was at that meet and thats me in the background with the Challenger TA I had at the time and I think I'm talking to @Dave Kanofsky?
