    Holy Hell,what was heaven like when you died and went there?? That is the stuff great stuff is made of. Is there a story that needs to go along with the pictures telling of the way this body was acquired??

    Now you need to leave it outside for about a month so it will have patina like those cool rat rods..........................



    Great car man, congrats on the find.

    I'm betting that 80+% of the people here start with something LESS than what you've got there. A rare find in this day and age. Congrats, be sure to keep us updated on the progress.

    ahhhh, she's a beauty! Great find.

    My dreamcar hot rod is a similar year Roadster. I'll find a good body someday when it's meant to be (or i will it to be....)

    I don't think that I have every saw such a beautiful thing in my life. The potential jumped off the screen and punched my in the mouth. Congrats, that really is "The One".

    Is this were you tell us that the previous owner traded you straight up for a chopped fiberglass body he had been searching for?

    Oh my, the cleanliness of that body gives me very dirty thoughts. What a great start, congrats!
     
  28. The car, was sandblasted about 5 years ago and then primered to protect it from the elements.
    I just took some paint stripper and sandpaper to get it to this point.
    Thanks for all the positive comments on "The One" (I guess thats it's name know)
    And, since I've received several PM's, NO, IT'S NOT FOR SALE.

  29. Great condition Boss. It's hard to make chicken soup out of chicken shit. haha
