So, I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago. I go back for visits regularly. 2 years ago, on one of my visits, I passed by a row of 3 abandoned car dealerships near where I went to High School. Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed there was a car parked in one of the showrooms, of these otherwise abandoned dealerships. Interesting, but ultimately no big deal.
FFWD to last week. I'm back in town for another visit, and I pass by said car dealerships again, which are still abandoned, and this car is STILL in the showroom just sitting there. I decide to investigate further. This is what I found:
This appears to be a mid-80's Chrysler LeBaron (K-car), in MINT condition (minus the flat tires). No idea why it's been sitting in that dealership's showroom like this. In the past, this was a Chrysler/Jeep dealer, and I have heard that the owner of this dealer liked to keep classic cars in his showroom(s), so I guess this one just got left behind. Pretty neat!
