    So how much is he asking?
     
  6. I lived in Montana for three years. I was building a house for a friend. Try driving a 32 five window in the snow. I hated it. I did meet lots of nice people up there and they still find good cars for me. I found this one on my last trip up there with big Paul.

    Its got 'PATINA' to it!..Either take the 'steel is real' theory or just buy a 'glass body'...They re-pop those too!

    It looks like 'false advertising' to me!!

    Here in the GreatWhiteNorth, we would call that restorable with little rust. The Cawli-fornia boys don't know how lucky they have it.

    straighten door, carson top and new front end
    if the price is right heck why not, seen much worse cars..

    my friend bought an mercury 1950 coupe from california among with alot of other cars, that car was pure junk, frame rusted, front end rusted to shit, quarter panels fucked, floors bad... was presented as a decent starter yeah right..... only guy wanted to buy it was a guy who was going to use it for parts....

    that car in the pic is a far better start then that one was,,

    If you're lucky it'll start fixing itself, then kill all your high school enemies for you.
