Great Find!! As to what should be done with it, you should not even get started. It will only eat up valuable time and money. Sell it to me for a reasonable price and ship it out here to California. I'll take care of it for ya!!

[QUOTE=, I already did a quick sweep of the place and found the front end of a 39 chevy.

I don't need the '39 grill, Oz, but looking at the second photo, what'll you take for the dog?

Cool find..I really like those big o buicks...I think i came across a place awhile back on the net that has parts for the engine...i was doing a search because some of the Flxible buses had them & i knew where a complete motor was at the time! but i ended up going diesel..
here's 3 pics 1 of a 46 flxible a buddy just finished, The Flxible company even made up these cars in pic 2 do a search..and #3 is the coolest looking woody i've ever seen...

Well... I don't think I could ever sell my Boxer... but for the low low price of $700 I'll pimp him out to your b*tch

This professional creative guy once told me that there are no new ideas, just different combinations of the old ideas. Makes me think of the whole "Rat Rod" debate that rages on.

when it rains it pours...
So I just happen to be driving down the same road I go on every week to school, and what do I see? a 55 caddy poking its grill out from a garage. So I decide to stop and see what this guys story is. It's all original, laquer paint intact, just a beautiful car. I can't help but admire one of my dream cars in pristine condition. after talking for a few about 20 minutes he mentions a "parts car" that he has behind his other garage.

"So a guy drove it into my yard one day because he had seen my other car sitting here. He had just been hit by a dump truck and was very irrate." "what'll ya give me for this piece of shit?" the guy asked him. "I dunno" said Steve, "I've got a 16 speed bike in my garage" "I'll trade you straight up"

Thats how steve got his other 55 caddy. and now it's coming home with me for about the same price he paid. fender and hood damage, but thats about it. mice got the interior, but I figure for the steal I'm getting, I can afford to put a few bucks into it.
