Heres what left of our running driving e-bay convert












we also built new frame rails for the rear this weekend and got them installed! But no pics of the rails....they are similar to the rails on my car, but kicked in 3 in!

Ever notice how 9 out of 10 classic cars posted on eBay state "no rust"? Isn't it the other way around?

Anyway, glad you got the restoration ball rolling!

The shop I used to work at did a conversion of a 55 Chevy from hardtop to convert. The only part they used from the convert donor car was the cowl. I know what you guys are going thru...Good Luck. Looks great so far.

I notice a lot of cars on Ebay and elsewhere being advertized as Rust Free, I think they mean that you will receive rust at no additional charge.

I did take some pics of what was left of the car....although they aren't accurate because we also scrapped the whole front clip....I have never seen so much rust even the underside of the hood(all the structure) was almost completly rotted......
