    That's what I thought it was but wanted to make sure I wasn't just imagining. My friend was using it as a hunting blind. On my way
     
  11. I'm close, I can go with you but you better not hesitate to pick it up. Tim
     
  12. Buy him a hunting blind of his choosing,you will be way ahead of the game. HRP

    Change of plans. They don't want anyone on the hunting property. They are going to load it and haul to my house. Geez I hope they are careful.
     
  16. Geeze, are they afraid you would trample the grass? Its hard to damage the hunting grounds.

    Ok it got dug out and on the way home. It's rough. Way rough. What is the best approach to take on this?

    Oh! That's where I parked my car! :eek:
     
  23. Yeah, thats pretty rough. Might be of better use for parts to another body.

    Yeah that's kind of my thought. Not sure what's worth taking off or best way to go about it.

    Sell it off in rusty squares for mantle pieces so people can say they have a 32

  26. Looks pretty nice to me, particularly for a woods car. I'd get the roof banged out and make up or buy a subframe then patch the lower panels. Or sell it to somebody who will ;)

    I have too many projects and this is definitely out of my skill level. So yeah I'd prefer it go to use. Reason I'm posting here. Yeah the roof isn't too bad. One corner dented pretty heavy but would hammer out easy enough
     
  28. You're going to find the West Coast & Southwest guys telling you it's too far gone, ignore them, they're used to pristine antique metal; rust is a mythical creature in their world! :p

    That said, it's certainly a body that has issues, but it's worth saving for sure. I'd say it's in too good of shape to cut up for repair panels. As for what it's worth, I haven't a clue because that depends on where you sell it. West Coast, not much, East Coast, good money, is all I can figure.
     
  29. There are people on this site who could bring that back. Unbelievable skill levels some people have. Its just a matter of if they want to invest that much time into a deuce sedan. Way beyond what I am capable of.

    Yeah beyond my skill level. I don't want to go butchering it up. Also didn't want to see it in the woods. I live in the land of rust also. Lol
