After the rollover, and dealing with insurance, and the divorce, I began looking for another 60s series for a body swap.
I found this one in New Mexico on Facebook Marketplace. Freshly painted and got him down to $12,000. He sent a video. My coworker Dagan and I drove my Dodge and flatbed 1,300 miles from Oregon through Idaho into Utah. Cut through the SW corner of Colorado and into New Mexico.
This store in the middle of Utah off the I-70 was the creepiest place we’d ever seen. Unfortunately we drove through Moab twice in the dark.
New Mexico was perhaps worse than I’d thought. On the reservations dead dogs were common and the roads are terrible. We got to the 60 and was excited. Went underneath to see the body was filled with spray foam and could see rust. I was there 15 minutes. The nerve of the guy to never mention anything about spray foam and then act ignorant… we headed back to Oregon. But while in New Mexico a guy called me in Arizona with a clean 60 but wouldn’t go below $16,000. I decided to pass and get home with an empty trailer. It was a good roadtrip. Dagan was great moral support knowing what I was going through and the road does something about healing. He knew I would find what I needed.

. I found a red 62 in Phoenix, Oregon near the Oregon/ California boarder. I drove down to check it out and just driving a 60s series again was so enjoyable. Drove up towards Mt Ashland and enjoyed some off-road and gravel roads. Got back to his place and loaded it on the trailer as his wife asked to sit inside one last time and she shed some tears. The name Cherry 
quickly came, she that’s what I named her.
