    It will buff right out. What are we supposed to see in the pictures where it's covered by a tarp?

    It's one of those things, that can get a guy all excited.....then the realization of does it make sense to put the time, money and effort into it?
    Hopefully it'll get some love from somebody....is that somebody you?

    First impression? Too many taillights.
     
  8. That rear pan is the real oddball thing I see. Makes you wonder if it's some sort of rear engine conversion.

  10. It looks neat !

    I see “ stuff “ inside the hole in the tail panel
    The rear wheels seem set back far , is this vw or rear engine powered ?

    First impression is that, they should have left the cutting torch alone. And it goes without saying but I’ll say it anyway…….we need more pics. And not of the tarp.

    I'd say you could probably put the sawzall away. That's enough chop!
     
  15. Twin exhaust under the taillights.

    Posting duplicate photos is pretty easy to do on a phone, but you can fix it by editing.

    Neat car, show us the rest, don't be a tease

    Looks like a nice project from that one picture. What's with the tarp pictures? That pan has to go! What does the rest of it look like?

    Please tell me those fenders and roll pan were already cut, looks that way. If so wonder why.

  20. First thought?
    Well... after "Hey, a chopped Model A Coupe."
    "Uh-oh... a tarped car on dirt."
    Nothin' rusts a car like being covered with a tarp sitting on dirt.
    I mean crispy.
    But maybe it hadn't sat there too long.

    I stand corrected.
    "Hey... a chopped '32 coupe."

    Looks like somebody ****ed up the back of a '32 5 window Ford. Hopefully it doesn't have a VW engine, but even if it does, it's worth fixing.

    I'm guessing pictures are out of order. He was showing the progress to get to car.
    Now we need to see more of it.

    Pretty sure that's a 32 - 5 window that looks pretty solid to me from what's visible. The lower portion of those rear quarters is usually gone from rust. Somebody was already trying to undo the gawd awful rear mod and the rear fenders could be sold as is. I would ***ume that the frame may be gone or modded badly but if the rest of it looks that solid it, it may be a decent find. You can get a brand new rear pan easy. Drag it out and take more pics. It could be this someday...
