    I saw an add on messenger. Thought not a chance. I phoned and it rang busy for almost an hour. Then a very nice gentleman answered the phone. The next thing you know we are loading a nice chopped and channelled ‘32 sedan on the trailer. I still can’t quite believe it happened. The gentleman had owned it for 49 years and the last 44 were spent in that little shed.

    All I pull out of old sheds are rodent skeletons.
    Dang that’s a nice find.
    You mentioned the phone was busy for an hour as you were trying to call.
    Did the owner offer any insight on that?
    It’s not important, just wondering.

    A guy I know could be his twin, same mode of dress, only longer hair & beard. He has running Hot Rods, Model A truck,33 3w, If he calls, dig in for the long haul, phone calls with him are usually 30- 45 minutes long.

    The long slumber appears to be a result of the rather challenging terrain.

    They are 14”, and the man was very attached to them so I left them behind.

    Sectioned on the back half! That's odd.

    Twenty years ago my brothers, Dad, and I went to a huge auction in Minnesota with a ton of 32's for sale. Dad bought a couple tudors, both chopped and channelled. Your car reminds me of those.
