    Gotta quiet the trailer down again

     



    While waiting for the wifes Chemo treatment (3 hrs) I found this on Craigslist just 10 miles away from the Cancer center, she said "Go look @ it".
    Well long story short, I bought it. 100 % rust free, fresh 327, 700r4 trans , all chrome and stainless is great, all glass is good,nice red interior except for the candy stripe package tray. Just need a good buff and detail. Gonna load up the noisy trailer in the am and go get it only 75 miles away.
    This is gonna make sum1 a real nice cruiser.

    Love, Love, Love '61 Bubble Tops! The only thing wrong is it needs a 348 W Block & a 4 speed!! Plus it needs to be parked at MY HOUSE with a set of Cragar's on it!

    Glad to hear the wife is doing well !!!!

    We used to have a customer with a 61 bubble top (blue and white) with a 283 and a glide. I agree with Roger they all needed a W motor and stick.

    Very nice, do you mind me asking what something like that is worth over there?

    If so don't reply, I'm sure I can suck it up like a big boy.

    Well, went and picked it up, got a call on the way home from a buddy and he says "Swing by the shop on yer way home" which I do, and he looks @ it for 5 minutes and says "How Much/" I tell him and he say's "Unload it. That didn't last long, didn't even have to wash or buff it.
    On the HUNT again.

    That was a quick easy flip Don! That's great that the lung masses are reducing in her lungs too! That stuff gets out of hand quick so it sounds like they caught it just in time with her!
