What a waste.
Another " it's worth a hundred grand. I'll sell it for that or it stays where it is "
Probably.
And it'll rust to dust.

Love that! It's great that you can still find cars like this that need some TLC.
Hope Mossy is wrong & it does get saved.

Blimey Sinny, I take it you have been on Ivor's "Chairmanship Tact and Diplomacy" course already....Young Skywalker has become the master......

Been knocking on the door for this for a few years now but never get a answer, think the owner watches to see who it is at the door on the CCTV in the upstairs window, remainders of a red charger piled up in front of the yellow one too and spare k frame along side it

FFS !!!
I grew up watching a Mustang die this way.
Fella was a total idiot. Thought it was worth mega dollar and he was gonna retire on its sale. Died from the big C at an early age and his wife had it picked up ( what was left !) for scrap.
Broke my heart as a kid. I see the day it pulled on the drive. And 20 years later as it was dragged off !
Probably explains why I rescued a 4 door !
It was a pale green fast back. Not sure of year.

Might be worth sticking a note through the letter box if you haven't already?

I remember a yellow Challenger rotting away in a field in the Fens near Wisbech, never managed to get close enough for a proper look but my oldman did.
The owner said it was his sons car & that it was very rare! The only car to that spec (but he didn't elaborate on the spec). It was still there about 3 years ago but in a VERY sorry state!

Seems an awful shame, perhaps the guys unwell, more facts needed, there must be a reason?

Its just a torment to see things like this especially when you love these cars .

No way should you complain to the council thats way over the top its his car and he can do what he likes with it. He may be like me no time when i am in work and no money when I am not. If it wasn't for people like my mate Pete where I keep my car it would probably be parked in the open on a dive somewhere and for the people like mossy68 and longshot who offered to give me a hand when I get around to clearing it out I don't know when it will be back on the road. I last road taxed it back in 1996. In the early 1980s I had a 1966 chrysler windsor 2 door 383 and a 1965 plymouth fury 2 door 361 removed by the council thats something you never forget.
