    heres a side pic.these are the pictures that were on ebay.ill have updated ones soon.as for my plans for this car...i'd like to shave the door handles,nose,deck,lower, take all the trim off, chrome knob grill, extended headlights(jersey dip style) and tailights,i'm thinking about a hood scoop off of a 53-54 mercury/similar style,radir tri-ribs with white wall slicks,high gloss aqua blue finish with heavy aqua blue metal flake,i wanna run the current 368 y-block,hopefully find a cam shaft and intake for it(dual quads or 3 deuces) doubtful,its going to be a lotta work, but i cant wait to start.id like to hear any ideas about modifications on this type of car.:D

    Ryan,

    For a grand you should have gotten more rust. Looks like a great deal as it has been kept dry for most of the last 50 years.

    These things look awsome with 3" of ground clearance.
