PNW Guys LookING FOR MY OLD 65 CYCLONE

Post by porkshop »

I Know its a longshot... 65 factory black 4 speed. sold it to a guy in Des moines Washington on Pacific highway named Don, he had alot of old cars, this was about 1984/85. the engine had no heads or intake, and the short block was bad. The car had bench seat with rust colered crushed velvet and black vinal tuck and roll interior.had aluminum five spokes.centers painted gold. I have some old pics but need to scan them to post. Mainly wondering if the cars still around. And what became of it. Last seen in Federal way, Washington. on the side of a house. cant remember the street. Id like to have it back but We will see if it shows up....THANKS JOHN

John, You never know. I just reunited the original owner of one of my 63 S-22's with his car a few months ago. He was looking for a long time, and i saw one of his son's posts on Craigslist. One thing led to another and we met. I decided to sell him his car back after he had not seen it in 37 years. It was quite an experience to say the least. I really miss it, but it was his. I had to do it. It was very humbling. Mark

This is crazy. You guys have me thinkin about my 62 build that I sold 20 years ago; stop this because I don't have room for another classic. Frankly, ya'll got me goin last week and I think my old 62 is still owned by the same guy i sold it to. I've put the feelers out. You guys *&^%$#@
