My grandfather used to volunteer his time watching over the local garbage dump since he liked shooting the breeze with the farmers and townspeople who'd dump their stuff there. One day when I was a boy, the entire aluminum front end from this very car was thrown into the aluminum pile there. Steve Link bracket raced the car at Great Lakes Dragway back in the 70s, and unfortunately stuffed the front end into the guard rail. The aluminum bodywork was badly wrinkled, but repairable by todays standards. But why go through all of that trouble when new steel panels could still be had at the local Chrysler dealership which his family just happened to own?
