  4. I mean a roof like that one...lol. A decklid like that one would be nice too. Im missing the dash too. Other than that its not bad. Especially for the price. Very very minimal rust!

    Mmmmm, maybe with some cutting. The window area is the same, but a sedan rear roof is more strait up and down, were a coupe is tappered back. Give me a minute and I'll PM ya ;)

    I think the four door rear section is really close, my coupe has a smashed roof as well and I have been looking for a solution. The quarter windows will have to be modified, but it looks like your window openings are not too bad. The front section of the roof is the same on two door, four door and coupe. How is the subframe and floors?
     
  11. subframe and floors are pretty nice. Will need to replace trunk floor. Other than that, Im pretty sure it wont need any lower patch panels. The running board is still jamming the drivers side door in place so i havent yet seen the bottom of it. Frames bent in the front and missing front crossmember. I thought a tree had fallen on it, but according to a neighbor the kid who had it "built it up" and was messin around one night, hit a tree and rolled it.

    How does it feel winning the lottery? You lucky *******. You should go out and buy the farmer a new tractor or something. No matter how rough it is its an excellent find.
     
  15. Your strokin' me right? You still think its a plymouth? Have you not read this whole thread?
     
  16. Sorry to be the bearer of even more bad news. But i picked up a 36 3 window back half for 150 and a 34 fordor missing front doors cowl top and fron frame section for 200. Im getting a 36 tudor for free and another 34 fordor for next to nothing....

    i think you should try and hammer out that top first, whats the worst thing that will happen, you have to cut it off for a new one. It will be one hell of a learning experience.

    Good find and look forward to the whole build on here.
     
  23. UPDATE: Im hoping to get the frame sent out this week to get straightened!
