Hello,
That is a GREAT looking ride. It looks to be nice shape.

Turns out its really two!! Two super chiefs. Bunch of extra parts also, extra body, odds and ends. I'm soo stoked. One i'm getting going NOW!! The other is in real nice shape and so I'm going to take some time with it. Picked them up a few days ago. Check out the pics!!

Wow, great find.

Wow, what a find. Have fun bringing them back to life.

Nice find on the Attex's, got a question. Is that a Pantera (hope i spelled it right) in one of the photos? Looks like one. See a few other sleepers back there. Good luck on the projects and keep us posted.

Hey Lewis,

I was going to guess a Lotus Esprit, vintage 80s.

Thanks guys,
George wins!!! It's a 87 lotus esprit. Nothin more than a 4 wheel, two wheel drive attex! Fiberglass body, rear engine. It's actually my brothers. He found it behind a dealership here in IL that was closing. It had been sitting there for three years and the guy said for 2 grand if you get it out of here today it's yours. It needs a few body parts to make complete, they got lost while it was going to get painted. It only has 40,000 miles. Lewis, my dad had a pantera many years ago. DeTomaso Pantera. The other cars are my dads, he has run a body/mechanical shop in our little town, for the past fifty years!! Keep you posted on the progress of the superchiefs, fired up the twin two stroke last night!! Got all the wiring done, hooking stuff back up, etc.

I was working away from the shop all day today and when I went back to get my truck and go home, this was on the seat. I've been looking for one of these for years! Made my day. Maybe sometime I'll find out who got through the gate to the parking lot and left it for me!
