When my Uncle Junior went off to Vietnam, he put a red 69 Boss Mustang up on blocks in Great Granddads barn.

I don’t know what ever became of that car.

Back in '77, a buddy spotted two Chevy trucks in a chicken house. From the road and with binos we determined a 57 Apache and maybe a 53 split window.

We went and knocked on the door to inquire about the trucks...

"I don't want to talk about it."

We guessed it was a son that did not come back from 'Nam.

15 years later the the property was bulldozed, along with the 2 trucks.

A Church is there now.

When I enlisted in 71, volunteered for Vietnam but got sent to Kunsan Korea (!), I returned in 73 and my father had sold my 65 Barracuda to the local Jesuit “worker” priest for $500. I just laughed (loved my Dad) and went out and bought me a 67 Chevelle SS 396. Wish I had both right now. :)
