Looking for a decent solid car, preferably 2dr. Pre -1960. Does not need to have motor or tranny. Closer to Columbus, OH the better. Don't want to spend over $3K. Want to do low budget trad. rod. Needs to have title.
I like 37-54 chevys
late 30's early 40's plymouth/dodges
28-31 Fords
41-48 Fords
Open to others, but must be adaptable to some old school, gasser, shine-runner style. Let me know what you've got.
I've got a '52 Bel Air Coupe for sale if you're interested. I'm in RVA though =\ Looking for around $1.5K. Let me know if you're interested.
too far for me. thanks anyway.
Here's a new twist.......
So since this post has been relatively unsuccessful, I thought that I would toss this offer into the ring. I will up the range to $4K, I will also toss in my performance motor, th350 tranny w/ gennie shifter and B&M transpak, and rebuilt Camaro 10-bolt rearend. (Cash+Parts= total value of apprx. $10K)
Here's the conditions, since I was orginally looking for a car to put this drivetrain into, the car that is traded must have a real nice drivetrain setup also. It must be a pre-1958 2 door, it must be solid, it must have a clear title. Must be in or near to Ohio. No junk. Prefer Model A coupes and Tudors. Also like late 30's to mid 40's coupes.
I realize this is out on a limb, but it's close to winter, and I know that inside storage is at a premium for everybody.
BTW- The motor is a fresh build, not even fired yet. I have 98-99% of the receipts and all the orginal boxes for the parts used. Built for use in an open hood car. Here's the details.

Thanks, but I think I am now looking for something older. Mid-30's to mid-40's Coupe.
I'm working on trading for a car trailer right now, but if it doesn't work out, I'll keep you in mind. Thanks.
