At the speed in which you are gathering them up, I suspect you will make River look like a hobbiest ;)

So, as they sit an hour ago in the order we acquired them...

'67 Soft Top. Currently not running. Has a Chevy v8 with loads of firewall damage from the person [Idiot?] in charge of the conversion. We plan to restore-ish this one second.
1891

'67 Soft Top. Currently not running. Stock engine with, for some unknown reason, the oilpan removed, trans/transfer case is MIA but most everything is there so we want to get this running first.
1895

'66 No-Top (was a hard top at some point in it's life) -- Like to never run again. This is our #1 donor and is slowly disappearing in the yard!
1903

'66 Hard Top -- This one will be donating some parts and then may be candidate project for someone else!
1898
