    My friend and I went scrounging around today. This FE powered, 3spd floor shifted jewell is sitting and rotting. The body is extremely rusted.

    No restoration some day but got the it's a runner line. I suspect the car will come apart but I will be trying to remove its resting spot this spring

    What a tragedy. Is there enough left to give some clean, six-cylinder Fairlane a new, more-exciting life?
