Mustangs are well known for rust problems but man, this thing looks like a really bad example. The guy probably wanted ten grand too.

He wanted 7. I told him he was dreaming. It's roached. Oh wait, but it has sentimental value? Bye!

Sentimental rust.

[AtomicEraTom]

Sounds like you've been hard at work! I always liked the round speedometers in the later Model A's better than the oval speedometers in the earlier models.

Yes it is Tom and the inside is looking even better as I just put in all new carpest and BTW I just put on 5 new tires.

Man that 33 Buick is the Bomb!

I'm surrounded by Tupperware cars here. I would love even that car!

Well, faced with that decision......

Believe me, I know all too well what it cost (costing) to take care of major rust issues on an old car. :eusa_doh:

Scary isn't it?

Scary isn't it?

If it weren't for the sentimental value attached to my'61 Chevy, I never would have taken on the project.

Many times that is usually good enough for us though isn't it?

 

[AtomicEraTom]

The same reason my Caprice is still around. Dreading that project!

You gotta love cars with a split windshield and I cant get over the fact that the paint and everything is original that's almost as hard as finding the car itself !
Is that suicide doors I see on it ?

All the Best, Fashion Frank

Yes the doors are suicide doors. Its very hard to find an original paint car today from the thirties. THEY ARE ONLY ORIGINAL ONCE. I also love hot rods and am not one of the folks that think its terrible to chop a top or customize an old car. I've owned and driven many modified cars. As far as this Buick is concerned I'm planning on leaving it just the way it came from the factory, I haven't had one like this in over 55 years.

So Caprice might be a good name for the project then?

 

[AtomicEraTom]

You know, I've been to Hell and back in that car. I think I will be again with that project.

Then the name does make sense.

I am glad someone finally got it.

Nothing Golden Era here, but I've been needing a spare kid hauler (the law sort of frowns on just piling 'em in back of a pickup these days). 1 Mach 1's latest got me looking around, and I found this today. (You're on the wife's list now, Harv)

'99 model, it's 4wd, 3/4 ton, with a 454 so it won't be a daily driver, but it'll be fun on the weekends.

 

[AtomicEraTom]

4x4, 3/4 ton, and a big block. What else can you ask for?!
