Saw this beauty today going through Atlanta

[mac14562]

Just saw this beauty as I was going east out of Atlanta today. It looked similar to one I discovered a couple of years ago hidden in some brush SE of Monroe, La. I could never get a landowner name or number so I just blew it off for the next time I was in the area. If it WAS it, I'm really glad someone saved it. Anybody from this forum the lucky owner?

There is a guy on facebook located in TN that has some posted for sale fairly often, wonder if that was one of his.

It's possible. I saw this on I-20 east of downtown Atlanta. The one i saw a couple of years ago was around Monroe, La about 5-10 miles south of I-20

I bought my 76 from a guy in Monroe 2ish years back! Was it a blue one on a flatbed trailer?

Looked more blue/green than just blue.

I think it just sold on FB marketplace. I saw it listed there last week. Obviously, the new owner is east of Atlanta and is taking his new toy home.

It was kind of multi-colored before I restored it back to its former glory. Was this the one you saw?

Nope. what I saw was definitely in worse shape than that one. And more greenish. The 2 reasons I haven't followed up on it, I found one in better shape (marginally) and my job hasn't taken me back remotely close to the area. Kinda well hidden unless you know where it is. I work pipeline right of ways and I've seen a few gems and a lot of bad stuff on the row.

Cool. Thought the location and timing was a coincidence. Guess not!

That bronco is from tallulah, la. It had been sitting in the same place for at least 8 years off of I20 at a mechanic shop. I tried multiple times to buy it and the owner wasn't ready to sell it. It was there about 2 weeks ago. I drove by there to day and it wasn't there.
