Great car! Congrats!
That is most likely the plan. Once we get the car in our possession, we will make that decision one way or the other.

this is the first chance ive had to up load some pictures. the car came last week finally!!

the grille was painted silver by the fellow we got it from. the original owner painted it black at some point apparently. i received his contact info and im planning on reaching out to him this weekend.

some of the coolest finds in the documents were the time slips from Lyons back in the day in southern CA. fastest time was a 12.46 @ 108mph!!

some other items save in the clean up were the original leaf spring tags, back plate sticker, and he save the fan shroud label that was earlier talked about in the thread.

in the few minutes ive had to spend with car and the boxed parts, ive found the following off the car but still with the car. these items were removed out of caution to get the car running and driving again:

upper and lower radiator hoses
heater hoses
heater core
pcv hose
motor mounts
spark plug wires (originals gone)
distributor cap
radiator was recored but preserved the top and bottom plates
rear end cover (original had a hole brazed)
battery
oil filter
air filter
gas tank (original one had too many pinholes)

if the car goes for vintage certification, some of these parts will be put back on the car.
