I spotted this last week while I was down on the Navajo reservation in Arizona amid a whole bunch of old dissasembled chevy trucks down in a wash behind one of the settlements. Looks like a front wheel drive 5 speed coupe to me -- not sure what year exactly.

 

It was on the road not long ago apparently. Tags on it expired in 2001.

 

 

 

i want i want:slobber:

 

was there any near by houses or businesses that might have owned it?i am really interested.

So what is the story on this one? Do you know who owns it? Are you going to grab it if you can or what? I would be all over that one if I were you!

oh yea, it looks to be a 78 fe coupe ea71

wow. that looks just like te fe i worked on today at pull n save. but nicer. this could be worth a road trip. zyewdall i'm gonna pm ya.

 

moose i got yer glass.

Yeah, I know who owns it (or at least the family who lives in the camp right next to it, so I presume it was theirs). We delivered a semi truck full of donated food to the reservation, and this family's place was the staging center. I've got too many projects carwise right now to think about taking this on, but I thought someone else might be interested. Love to see it back on the road instead of composting. What would something like this be worth? I suspect it doesn't run, or they'd still be using it, but the body was in great condition. Oh, one thing you can't see in the picture is I think that the windshield is missing, so the inside's been a little exposed to elements.

 

Actually, we had a tandem axle trailer and a dodge cummins truck down there, so we could've brought it back to Colorado yesterday with us. Didn't think of that. We're going down there again next spring, so maybe we can grab it then. And I'll keep an eye out for any other old suby's there -- every camp on the reservation has about 10-20 old cars behind it. Mostly pickups, but if anyone needs mostly rust free parts from 70's and earlier vehicles, the reservation is the place to get em.

That sure would be a nice one to pick up and make my daily driver. Would a windshield out of a 78 brat fit? I have 2 of them.

i don't think so.

You need a windshield from a 2 door coupe or a GF. HOWEVER, the BRAT, sedan, wagon glass may fit, but it would be a tad bit small in the top left and right hand corners. I think you could get by though.

Thanks John!!!

 

I say you should go get that coupe.I know you want one and you're the closest....maybe.

 

Man that light is something beautiful as it strikes that car,isn't it?Makes me want to pack up and leave with camera in hand.

i wonder is anybody would notice if you just pumped up the tires, hooked it up, and left? but seriously, the car looks pretty abandoned.the only problem would be the title.

get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, get it, and oh yeah get it

Somebody help it out of that mud!

I am possibly heading to Arizona this weekend. I am taking a trailer with me. Now all I need is a location and maybe I could drop by and pick it up!

GET IT Subieguy, that way you will have almost all the gen 1 body styles, just need to find a sedan.any word on the bullbar?no rush, just figured i`d ask:)

Did not have a box laying around at work for it. Now I will have to go out and find one for it. Should not be a problem though. I will look for one tonight while I am out.
