    No I never did get that with it, Im guessing it was probably stolen along time ago along with the aluminum louvered trunk lid.

    I'd be kicking myself in the ass if the history was just found with that pic but I no longer had the car.

    thats the car, same front end as in mrgassers photos, only it looks like the wheelbase wasnt altered yet.

    Love to find something like that and restore it.

    I sold the car but I know where it is.... Damn that is nuts. The car was GONE though, it was rough...one of the roughest one's Ive had. I would have started with another body.

    The only thing really usable was the aluminum tonneu cover and the hoop. Maybe alittle of the bird cage in the body...other than that it was rusty everywhere.


    Im going to try to get the car back now....Ill keep you guys updated.

    OK...I found the car in Jan. '09, I passed on it, thought it was TOO ROUGH for how much ol' Bill was askin'...Jon bought it, kept the Bell axle and Americans, (installed a stock Model A axle in it's place)...sold or traded it to Scooby, who eBay'd it, and traded it to Stephen...then Steve sold it...right?

    I know it 'really' resembles the Filthy Few car in the pic that Jason posted, (the roll bar and tow tabs are dead giveaways), but, with the altered wheelbase, and truncated, (I know, big word, huh?), cowl, it almost looks like another, different car in the condition it was when I found it...
