    If you can find a tank, firewall and a couple of cowl panels; it should be easy to fix.

    There may be a need to pressure test that fuel tank, could have developed pinhole leaks being stored outside like that!

    Looks like you've found a genuine rat rod... you could put that up on ebay and sell it for 20k and have enough to buy yourself a nice hotrod with cash to spare.




    I actually knew where something similar was, it was mostly just a shell there, but it was rotted really bad. I went back to check it out a few weeks ago and it was gone! I figure someone drug it out when s**** prices were up.

    Look at brackets at ends of the rail...roadster cowl??
    WalMart sells a little kit of two colors of putty that you mash together to fix gastank leaks. I heard it is great for this sort of thing.
