Not much more to investigate. Very smart people on here have given you the information why you should run, keep your money and keep looking. The...
Is there a Florida or another state title for it?
Yup! Throw it out, then find out it's worth a couple grand to someone thats been looking for it for 40 years to finish something he's been...
U.S.A.F. 621st OMS McChord A.F.B. Washington 1966 - 1970
Look on Facebook marketplace in Newport. There are some 50's for sale, maybe they will sell you a hood.
Enjoyed this thread Jim. Great pics.
Going up thru Baltimore, New Jersey and New York on 95 the roads with all that traffic could be torn up and a mess for a hot rod. Take...
Looks like it was registered in Calif. at one time so there must be a title for it somewhere.
I would go for the cannon plug connectors also. Go to an aircraft salvage yard and get what you need.
Look at the top left frame rail over the front axle. My 46 numbers were located there.
Get ahold of a couple of local car guys and see if they will help you out. A friend and myself have helped out a couple people and all it cost him...
I could be wrong but if my memory serves me right my 46 long door coupe had the long ones that you show.
Your right Bleach. My eyes are failing me at times.
Looks like a 57 Ford retractable in the picture with the ford hardtop.
I had 64 T-Bird buckets in mine. Fit well. Nice looking coupe.
Inside storage isn't rodent free either even if the owners say it is.
I remember some of the old shows at Stowe, Vermont were the same way. Dump trucks hauling gravel in and bulldozers pulling motor homes and...
I sold a hotrod to a guy in Alberta and didn't have a title for it. Notarized bill of sale and signed registration. Can't remember if there was...
I put one in an old VW coupe I had. Hit the switch and there was a loud KAPOW followed by a flame coming out the front heel well. But other than...
Used a boat dash panel to hold my gauges on the coupe i had.
God I miss going to that meet. The last time I was there was 2013 with Cad-LaSalle and a couple other buddies. Great times.
I think your timing is off.
Dig it up and save it. Go poking around and you may find the doors.
Ford had a habit of superceding the letters to the current year. Like the COAZ-A might change to C1AZ-A or C2AZ-A , but being the same part.
Howard's yard is always full. Your coupe looks great.
I'm cheap, and use layers of friction tape and remove excess with a razor blade
Sides look like Mustang but the seats aren't. Maybe Comet or Falcon?
I know how easy it is in Vermont. What does an out of stater use for an address for the registration. Your not going to get a title if its 15...
Looks like the bezel on my 46 coupe.
Born in 46 and have a 46 ford coupe with t bird front and rear seats and a 41 front nose.
