Sad SVX Sighting

LarryIII · #1 03-20-2006, 04:28 AM

Yesterday, on I-95, in northern Delaware, we spotted a Claret/Black SVX broken down in the southbound lanes. It was parked on the shoulder in the southbound lanes between the Naanam's Road and Harvey Road exits. It had a white tee-shirt stuck half-in/out of the driver's window. Rosie and I pulled up and I walked around it. It was not in good shape. There was paint gone from the spoiler and big spots of white fiberglass were showing. There were water stains on the top of the dash at the base of the windshield.
It had a cardbord plate that said it was a '92 and purchased at the 'Woodbridge Auto Auction' on 3/18/06.
I left a club windshield note with my name and tel. number offering help.
I surmise that it was bought for parts or restoration.
I haven't been contacted yet.
Does this SVX belong to someone here?

Addendum (3/21/06) The SVX is still sitting there this morning, looking so forlong. It reminds me of a lost, bedragled kitten that needs a good home. I feel for it.

If it were sittting on the side of the road in the DC area the only thing left by 3/21 would have been the tee shirt.

My money would be on the tranny failed and left the owner stranded. That's the biggest problem with auto auctions. You never get to drive the cars. I guess it pays to have a friend with a trailer to haul what you buy.
