Is it just me, or does the main part of the body look exactly like a ‘39-‘40 Ford 2dr sedan?

 

I posted this one in the sitting and rotting thread back in 2016!

Good eye!!

 

too much tinworm and too much interior damage to be much more than a parts car. Humidity eats those unibody Lincolns worse than road salt.

 

A guy I know found one that nice. Now it is a chopped fufu pearl painted street rod with suicide doors, ugly wheels, and a phony blown 350/350. You can almost feel its shame as you walk by.

 

Def a shame to do that!

here's a nice Buick in Omaha, for $8k

(If I didn't have other things going on, I'd be on this….bet that would really shine up with a little work and time)

 

Parts car for the cool front end for a custom
The nose is worth that

 

1941 Dodge PU, looks very solid….would clean up nicely, although the seats and tires/wheels are a distraction, IMO

In Lincoln, NE
$4500

Not Craigslist, but I tried to make a play on this a couple of weeks ago. I'm****uming his inbox got flooded, I never got a response.

 

Also, not necessarily cheap, but doesn't seem bad for what it is ...

 

Like hearse owners say, "Don't let your first ride in a hearse be your last."

 

Race car chassis

 

I think Derek from VGG could get it started and drive it back home to TN. lol!

 

In a heartbeat! I have another '29 chassis in the yard and almost enough sheet metal. Always wanted to build one of these first generation " Cast Iron Wonders" Chevy Six can' be beat!

 

48' Crosley Panel $750 Oregon

1924 Model T
Papillion, NE
$4000

That T seems better than the stuff around here. Hacked, rusty, non-running junk at the same price.

 

1940 Chrysler Windsor
Culver, IN
$3850

I'd drive this as-is! Damn pretty little coupe.

 

Check out the pale blue Crosley back there

 

It IS. Neighbor down the street restored many of them. He's passed on, don't know what became of the Model Ts.

 

Seems like a steal, body work supposedly done, 350 in it already, and a 9 inch.
