Its been a long 4 years since I bought it but its almost done:
I'll start at the beginning as I'm working the night shift and have a lot of time on my hands lol :
Sometime in the spring of 2004 my dad and I were in Steinbach, Mb, we were at the bank there taking out some cash for something and just for the heck of it my dad asks the teller if there are any wreckers around, turns out there is one about 5 miles up the road in La Broquorie, Mb.
We head down there and find this really big old j-yard. As we walk past all the cars scattered around we find this black 86 shelby charger sitting next to the main office door. It was the first time I had ever seen a shelby charger in real life and I really liked it. Unfortuneatly when we asked it wasn't for sale and we went home after picking up a few daytona parts from the yard.
Fast forward to the fall of 2004, we headed back to the same yard to look at a 86 t-top daytona he had there, luckily (for me) it was full of mice and rusty as we are walking back to the office we see the charger again and my dad walks up to it and opens the door. I sit inside and immediately want it:
$3000 later it was sitting in our garage:
It looks rough paintwise but it was rust free (kansas car), and was safetied so I could drive it to school. The story of the car is that it was brought up to Canada by the owner of the j-yard in 96, he had it registered up here for 3 months before he parked it until that very fall when we bought it. It had been sitting for almost 10 years.
The only rust spot was a tiny hole in the driver's floor and a small patch on the driver's rear quarter where a huge mouse nest was.
Edit: There are some more pictures that I'll dig up when I'm home.
