Default Project anyone....?

I just got back from looking at a project car....I'm not really looking for one but the windshield and interior was out of it so it gave me a good chance to look that over.

I'll sort thru the ones I took and post some here when I get a chance....Time to go play with the dog right now.

I did upload about 50 pics to my blog....If anyone wants to see them.

There are a few of a 50's ford truck he also has for sale....It's just about finished, just needs glass from what I could tell.

Everything is supposed the be there including lots of new interior parts....I'm not sure how much new is there I didn't go thru all the boxes.

The guy told me the motor had been rebuilt but by looking at it I really didn't think it would even run....He said I can get it running is 5 minutes I gave that look of "I ain't a dumbass" he backed down and said well within an hour...I gave him my cell numbers and told him to send me a video if he got it running...He did before I even made it home. I'll post it later.

The title isn't in his name and wasn't signed over to him....It's laminated in plastic...? He says he has a bill of sale but I didn't ask to see it....It looks like he buys and sells quite a few cars. The vin matches the title. It's a bicentennial car with the vin ending in 1776.







The frame looks bad....It's heavy surface rust but very little pitting atleast the parts I touched.

The birdcage on the other hand is looks much better including the body mounts behind the kick panels they felt solid on the bottoms but the pics looks like there might be some rust thru....Hard to tell. I have seen much worse.






































Engine bay is a mess....








A couple of pics of the

new interior parts....
