Haaaay FABO!!!
You know I get around!!!That's right you heard right!!
It's time for a SPECIAL EDITION of

CAR HUNT! FABOZENE:cool:

This is not your ordinary chapter of
CAR HUNT! FABOZENE:cool:

It's
CAR HUNT! FABOZENE:cool:
with a new twist!!

This time the car hunts us!!I see a new member comming into the FABO family!!

Here's the story.....
Hustlin cars for cash, hauled 2 before 9:30 this morning. Then had to move a bunch just to get Daisy out of the barn for show prep.
Never made it back to her and blew it off. All she'll need for show is us, lawn chairs, cameras, and a spray wash in the town we're heading to! LOL
I digress...
ANYWAY,
I'm in the house for a well deserved break and trying to figure what to fix in a bit for dinner, the phone rings...
It's a sales rep at the local Dodge dealer.
He has a lady there who needs and wants to buy 2 fenders for a 64 vert dart 270. Can he send her to my house?
Sure.

Later get a call from her. She's lost in down town Aurora. Something lost in directional translations.
I jump into the vert LeBarron to go half mile to towns gas station to meet and leed the nice ladies back to the house to meet ABodyBetty and the cars!
I notice however that they are in a 66 vert not a 64. (see attached pics)

Howdies went round, 2 min car show.
ABB did ya call the Dawg for me bout the fendies?
Yes I told him, he's calling back in a min.
Did ya ask for 64 fendies or did ya send him to the black 66 we were talking about?
He'll call back in a min.
Yard Dawg calls, fendies pretty solid on the 66 come on up.
So were off another 5 miles to the Dawgs!!

On the way up,
I'm wondering what on earth these 2 ladies are thinking as they are following the LeBarron further into the Hoosier tundra!!

We pull in to find the Dawg on his tractor haulin more gravel for a driveway widening project just started.
He was busy so I led the ladies further into the cars.
Meet YD's wife and she's getting lots of stuff ready for the big sale deal for a week around here, everybodies got sales at their houses all week.
She leeds the 66 owners friend into the house to shop the clothes and such and the 66 owner and I meet YD at the 66 for the fendies.
Howdies go round again.
Like old friends meeting!
YD admired her car so much he almost gave them the fenders for nothing but telling her
they had to hire me to pull the parts and do the body work/rust repair! Thanks Dawg!
That's the only way you'll get the fenders or that price! Thanks again dawg!
The main reason is your special car, and knowing you NEED the fenders for you and your car.
Not for flipping or resale.
Will you take a check?
Cash only.
(me) I'm sorry mam, we just don't do things like that around here for the Abodies.
The A whats?
A Bodies. That's what your car is.
Oh.
Well I know people with trucks, can you pull the fenders and I'll send them out to you?
I'll drop my car off end of show season to be worked on and you can have all winter as long as she is stored indoors!
She is not to be left outside!! Yes MAM!!
Well we'll talk later on that. Let's just get the fenders for you first. Here's how we do it for Abodies.
I pull parts for you. bring em to my house to clean up a bit for you.
Then I can either repair metal on them for you first or you can take to your body guy.
Your "truck driver" will have to pay me the cash, and I'll give it to Yard Dawg.
Big round of BSing bout the car, pics taken, new friends made.
Another Abody owner who never heard of the site but will be visiting soon.
She had no idea who to see for parts or work on her Dart. Her husband purchased the car special order.
Sadly, she lost him in December. That's what led her to the Dodge dealer over here.
They used to come over here for parts and such.
There was an automatic at the dealer on the showroom but her husband wanted 3 speed on the tree!!
1966 Dart Vert 270 Slant 6, 3 on the tree, special order, one owner survivor!
Can't wait to have them join us here on FABO and
CAR HUNT! FABOZENE:cool:

Not to worry. We'll see that she gets the promice her and her husband made to each other
of new fenders, body work and paint job.
Even if I don't do the work, I will be there if she needs me to arrange it for her!! (KARMA once again)
Her and her car will be in good hands in the land of Aurora Darts, Yard Dawg, and FABO!

Very nice ladies, looking foward to having new friends!!
See ya next time,
CAR SHOW TOMORROW!!:headbang:

1 more for the road!
Hit it!!
