Possible gem in my backyard...?

So i have this 2 house set up next door to me, one of the houses are rented out only so we've had several temporary neighbors in the past 10 years. I remember seeing an elderly man that had an old 50s chevy fully restored, and for the life of me I cant remember when this 4 door catalina showed up in the back yard of the rented home. my assumption is that it was left there when he moved out years ago, tho I dont even know whose it is, I HATE looking over at it and not being able to save it from a further beating from father time.

My late night snooping with a flashlight a few weeks back confirmed that the body has NO major corrosion and only a dinged up front fender, and bent front bumper. interior is all original but in poor shape, and the dash still has all its peices. original motor must still be in there as well, couldnt see the milage.





I want to go knock on the door of the main house and ask whose it is and TRY to strike a deal so I can move it over and make this my future 2nd project. those are pics taken last winter btw.
