    Well I was trolling the famous auction site and came across this gem...

    "Solid frame has drop axle split wish bones. Forty ford rear end with three eighty six gears. Has all fenders and running boards. A nineteen fiftytwo flat head V8 that runs good.New NOS grill. Nice hood. Back window does roll up and down. Front window opens. Is a rumble seat car still has step on rear fender."

    Called the guy up, and now it is mine.

    I cannot wait to go get it...

    Any suggestions?:D

    Ooo, can I be in it? hahaha

    Congrats man.

    Doesn't LOOK like that flatty should run. Is it a different one than the one in the car?
     
  4. Leave the fenders on ;):D

    I'm always watching the site for those...I thought that one was a good deal. Stock body, chopped and shaved, flatty or..., you can't go wrong.

    The fenders are staying, no doubt.

    The guy ***ures me that the flatty in it runs - we shall see.

    I am thinking leaving it as is, adding some type of interior , making sure the flatty will get me around, make it all one color, and drive it...

    Very cool car. But it doesnt define you, your at***ude and ap***ude do that. I think more people need to realize that. Congradulations on the new project, have fun with it! I'd run it full fendered with a hot 283 in it and drive it until hell froze over! You were always "Hamb worthy", a car doesnt "make you", you make the car! Cant wait to see your final product!

    Congrats on the 36. My father inlaw has one and I am waiting for him to make up his mind to fix it or let me have it.
