    Great find, yup the front end needs to go
    The door trims are rad with the diamonds on each door going a different way (don't drink then trim)

    Good deal man. Usually this stuff happens when you least expect it.

    Anyways, would you sell the steering wheel?

    That's a great find. I've got way more than that in just my pile of rusty Model A parts. I'm jealous.

    Couple of years ago I spotted a 57 Chev. big back window p/u, rolling ch***is, taken apart----spotted the fenders etc. in the garage. Saw it from time to time, not making any progress. Always wanted to stop and ask if he'd sell it. Then it disappeared. Yea, you guessed it. Some guy ASKED---" 2 grand, get it outta here" DAMN DAMN DAMN shoulda ASKED BILL RINALDI

    Congrats on the killer deal. A solid example like that in the northeast would be next to impossible to find and go for a **** ton more 3500! ****y front end included!
