for missing parts, engines, etc. Haggerty just ran an article about them, while they look fine on the surface its whats underneath that counts. Their scouts showed many easter bloc countries engines and diesel engines used as replacement. They even found a skill metal worked who could make 1958 Caddy bumpers........wait for it......from tin.

Cost more than what they are worth.
