I have in mind a true traditional rod, nothing newer than 1960 or so.

Hey, you can join our low buck project club. With the stuff you have there, you could put this thing together pretty cheap, and old-timey.

Not much has been happening lately for me and the other guys who were shooting for the $ 3 K budget, so maybe we need you to get us going again. I think you've got the real beginnings of a cool traditional rod there, and with old stuff showing up on Ebay all the time, you should be able to find those pieces you need pretty easily.

Much better choice than tearing down the other car.
