My wife seen this car a few weeks ago when we were out driving around. Its a 1952 pontiac chieftain. We met with the owner (who was a really nice older gentleman and has offered to come help if we need it) and worked out a deal and trade. She used to have a 350 with turbo 350 in her but it was pulled out and she has sat for several years. We are going to put that in her for now just to get her back on the road. After the summer we are going to try and shoehorn a olds 455 into her. We need a few things for her but she is mostly completely. My wife has named her rose and is just involved in her revival as me. I am including a picture of my wife pulling the windshield from a parts car we found in a junkyard in SC. I love her being involved!
Congrats on the pick up. I'm a big fan of the Chieftains. I drug a 50 out of the woods years ago but it was beyond my skill level so I traded it off. Good luck with it.
Wadda woman!!! Looks like you have it goin on in both fields. She gonna let you drive it? I did that too. I let her have the first one, then we built mine.
