History
My buddy's dad owned a salvage yard. At least 7 years ago he bought the Elco from someone down in GA. A few years ago my friend's dad passed away and my buddy took over his dad's shop. I was riding a motorcycle all winter and my friend told me that he had a car I could could buy off of him stashed out back. Sitting on two blown tires with a dead battery and an ignition beyond out of timing, my love hate relationship with Willie began. The ol' bucket is named Willie because of the smoke that dumps out of em, at least for now.
