Well I was cruising by an old auto shop I used to work at and talking with the owner about how I was looking for another project. He told me that joe (the owner of the shop next door) had grabbed something out of the scrap bin the other day so I went over to have a look. At first it seemed like a total loss but I offered him a few bucks for it on the spot. He wanted to give it to a buddy and wouldnt sell. O ver the next couple of days I kept thinking about the body and had to have it , so I went back w a few more dollars Its definately the biggest challenge I have ever attempted and has already been chopped up and patched beyond any original restoration. I am currently trying to figure out what it is- There is extensi ve work that has been started, none of it finished. At first I was thinking 27 attempting conversion to 29 but now Im unsure I appreciate any help before I start my own grinding. Price will follow if interested... This side seems mostly stock This side has modified door lines, modified cowl, added body lines, etc... Thanks guys
Nice! Im glad I was close. Although I know my buddy got it from the scrap bin for free, I paid $100 and feel like it was a great deal. . Im still trying to figure out what work of his I will be keeping. Im thinking ill keep the firewall line and door lines but return to the more flattened back side (right now the top is rounded but the rest is se mi flat if that makes sense . I really appreciate the help and any further ideas!. Build thread to follow when I learn a bit more and decide where to start.
