    Well, found another project/parts car.

    They seem to think tho

    "Interior is in good shape"
    "Ship to shore phone and police radio option"
    Will not start, will crank, brakes work...

    They are asking 1,500

    I offered to get it out of their back yard for them....

    That doesn't look bad for that money with the studabaker also. just check the frame on the tbird in front of the rear springs, and pull the trunk mat on the corners over the mufflers. and under the rugs in the car. If all is well it's well worth it. Just my thought. I would!!!!!!!! Bill

      RustNCa it appears that these birds are becoming a magnet to you and are coming fast and furious. As mentioned, if the floorboards, wheel wells aren't rusted and frame being straight
      it could be less expensive, to bring back to it's original state. It certainly has some very unique options and don't know if there are many out there that would be that neat to own . I would go for it.

        So, is that radio thing a factory option? Is that big black box in the trunk part of the radio? Interesting.

          What is that rod or strut that seems to come up from the steering box area and ends just above the A/C pump - and had a threaded stud sticking out of it??

          Back on topic - the car looks worth saving, it seems fairly original and complete.

            That rod is the compressor support and comes from the top of the exahaust manifold to the top of the compressor. Looks like a nice parts car but too far gone to be worth saving on the west coast. If it was out east it would be a different story. Hawkrod
