Lets hear the story, where was it found? As found, or did you clean it up a little? Roger

The way you see it,other than the drivers fender,is the way i got it,he had banged around the pass fender,and when he replaced that he replaced the drivers side as well but had a perfectly good,original paint drivers fender so i put that back on the car for the picture,and then i washed it a little,otherwise it is the way i got the car. The guy i bought it from was pulled over in 1976 and was told if he did not put this car away,because of open headers,he would be arrested,he put the car away and started to take it apart,i was never really clear why but i did not want to argue with him,he wanted some emblems for the car and that is how he ended up talking with earl,and then earl let me know,He let me come down to wisconsin,he lives close to the brewers stadium and take a look at the car. He told me it had no rust and the interior was in very nice condition,all of us being on wild goose chases before,i was unsure of what to think but the car sounded good,i got to his house and we went to his moms where he had it parked,when he removed the covers i was amazed! no rust original qtrs,#s matching,what more could i say then i will take it!There was no paperwork and he is not sure if he has any pics but will keep looking,it has been in storage for so long he is unsure about anything he might still have.
