Notes:
Grandpa bought it for my dad in 1968. Dad hit a cow and it was totaled, but he bought it back for 75 bucks and put a
fender on it. Drove for a couple more years after.
It was parked in a neighbor's barn until I bought it for 300 bucks in 1998. Got it running and drove it around the
farm until 2000 when I started a frame-off on it.
The body is ready for paint. Motor is rebuilt and all parts are restored and ready to put back together.
I was 17 when bought the car and life got in the way, but now have the time to finish it in the next year or two.
