    Some have started with less Than I did but damn I don't know how!

    Found car in a neighbors barn loft had to move hay to get the 2 sections of body down from loft & then rebuild a floor brace and move more hay to get the body with good top out body with good roof had very little floor but good top & doors, body with no top had no rust holes and only dent was in rear lower panel, the guy I bought it from said it came form OK. and there they took an axe and chopped the tops off cars and "baja"d" them until they quit and left them there,, Started the day after thanksgiving 2004 and pulled it out of the garage April 3rd 2005
