Anyone know of a silver '69 sitting in front of Max's Pool hall in Lafayette LA? I was at a cruise night and a fellow came by and told me about it. He said that it has been just sitting there away from the buildings and businesses like it is abandoned. He told me that it has been three months.

Yesterday, while driving home from work, I was passing through an office park in Oak Ridge, TN, I saw a white (or cream) colored roadster with red interior. I thought I had the only one in the immediate area since I have not seen anyone on this forum from the area and have never seen one at any local car shows. It went past too quick to determine a year model. Anyone know who it might be? I would love to touch base. Thanks.

Driving around today out of the corner ofmy eye I spotted the distinctive hood of a datsun roadster out of the corner of my eye behind a commercial property. Driving behind the building I spotted this poor beastie in the yard of a derelict property with signs posted of imminent demolition by the city.

Trying to figure out how to get this '67 out of the yard before it is hauled away to the crusher or the dump by the city. Will be calling the city tomorrow.
