    I guess that shows the difference between Coupes and Sedans. I checked and found a Coupe in Langhorne, PA, that was 8,500. It does run though. Looks about the same condition.

    The interior was out but it is nice and I'm going to put it back in.Not sure what I'm going to do with it.I'll probably stash it for awhile.I have another 29 tudor in the garage I'm messing with.

    It shouldn't take you more than a day or two to have that dude running and driving, but maybe not stopping.

  22. The last one we had that we sold for $2500 would make that one look like it just rolled off the assembly line, you did good -

    Just chop it and drive it as a stocker. This is Eric from KC with 5 1/4 inch chop with the banger motor still in it.
