Is it just me, or does the main part of the body look exactly like a ‘39-‘40 Ford 2dr sedan?

 

I posted this one in the sitting and rotting thread back in 2016!

Good eye!!

 

too much tinworm and too much interior damage to be much more than a parts car. Humidity eats those unibody Lincolns worse than road salt.

 

A guy I know found one that nice. Now it is a chopped fufu pearl painted street rod with suicide doors, ugly wheels, and a phony blown 350/350. You can almost feel its shame as you walk by.

 

Def a shame to do that!

here's a nice Buick in Omaha, for $8k

(If I didn't have other things going on, I'd be on this….bet that would really shine up with a little work and time)

 

Parts car for the cool front end for a custom
The nose is worth that

 

1941 Dodge PU, looks very solid….would clean up nicely, although the seats and tires/wheels are a distraction, IMO

In Lincoln, NE
$4500

Not Craigslist, but I tried to make a play on this a couple of weeks ago. I'm assuming his inbox got flooded, I never got a response.

 

Also, not necessarily cheap, but doesn't seem bad for what it is ...

 

Like hearse owners say, "Don't let your first ride in a hearse be your last."

 

Race car chassis

 

I think Derek from VGG could get it started and drive it back home to TN. lol!

 

In a heartbeat! I have another '29 chassis in the yard and almost enough sheet metal. Always wanted to build one of these first generation " Cast Iron Wonders" Chevy Six can' be beat!
