    WOW!

    Does the owner know what she has, or is she just letting it sit because it was Grandad's car?

    she is sentimental about it, or is playing him like a champ lol. He honestly had no idea if it was worth restoring or not. I told him it was a no brainer, either he did or take me to it lol. He said he wrote down the fender tag info I will try to get it.

    I think if it were me I would name this thread HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY find !!!!   Nothing sad here.   :bananasmi
    From the looks of the tires (flat) there may be some rust issues down below?  Some guys have all the luck  :banghead:
    Look forward to hearing much much more.  Good luck if your buddy passes.  Just curious, what state is it in?  Don't worry we won't find it   :biggrin:
