The Hobo House/ Hot Rod

Dave got a future hot rod!! Woo Woo.....he is so excited to finally have his project car. He has had several since getting his license. Including a '90 mustang, a '72 Nova, a 67 SS Camaro, and the car he had when I met him, his 2000 mustang.
When he sold his 2000 mustang I was expecting Dean and he sold it because a car seat would not fit in the extra small back seat. That was besides the fact that the engine would cause deafness in a newborn. Now that Dean is almost 6 Dave has once again returned to the world of hot rods and I am so happy for him.
A few Days ago Dave called from work saying that my brother Dustin had been offered an old car in the garage of a condemned house the fire department was going to burn down for training. The car had been abandoned and had been housing a homeless man,....yuck! Dustin had been told that if he removed it he could have it. So of coarse Dave jumped at the chance and all it cost them was two hours labor of lifting a collapsed garage roof off it, $65 for a tow and $55 for three wheels.
That's it-
It was super nasty on the inside. One hobo is pretty bummed without his house, dirty mags, and drug paraphernalia (yep you heard right). Dave has already set off a bug bomb in it. He vacumed it for several hours and removed the rat chewed seats. I can't believe someone lived in there. EWWW!!!

I think Dustin and Dave really scored a diamond in the ruff. This 1946 DeSoto seems like a very rare find. It's "clean" on the outside with no surface damage and has all the orriginal eblems and chrome trim. It also has suicide doors.
My brother is always in the right place at the right time and seriously has some good luck. Now Dave, my dad and Dustin can bond over there projects.
My dad has an old Plymouth Valient convertable, Dustin has an old '56 Ford truck and now Dave has his awsome DeSoto.
Yay for husband hobbies! I am glad Dave can once again do what he loves.
