Hot Rods Got a model a coupe for "FREE" prepare to cry

This coupe was a daily driver a year ago. Probably a 9/10 car.guts garage caught fire. Burned to ground.the car didn't have full coverage car insurance so the home policy wouldn't cover. Came to customers house today. Owner said no one would haul it off.so I did. Cool yard art I guess..rip lil coupe

 

You want to borrow my buffer?

 

Somebody has to say it,"That will buff out" HRP

 

It will probably never be pretty again, but I bet it could still haul ass

 

List it for 20 days on the auction site with a 40k buy it now.

 

I could fix that.

 

Hey, Jim Sibley would have that running by the weekend...

I know, right?!

 

where is the rest of it?

 

Yea, I would like to try saving it too. Crazy about Model A's

 

All it needs is a little TLC...

 

truck load of cash.. But I would build it.. in fact it's better than some I've started with. It still looks like a car body.

 

I've seen Mcqueen on here bring a 34 coupe back from WAY worse than that. It looked like it had been hit by a train when he started with it.

 

Right that thang up so I can see it without turning my laptop over.

 

Rub it down with aluminum foil , it will look fresh as when it left Henry’s garage . Really sad stuff , just thankful no one was seriously hurt , sucks it has no insurance for loss recovery .

 

Why is it dumped there upside down, and it looks like an easy fix to the right person.

 

Have a little respect and at least turn it right side up for some pictures.
Start soaking it in penetrating oil and save it!

 

I fixed it.... kinda.

 

Ok someone has to put a bid in I would love to have that wish I was closer. Hobo Jim

 

Garage Caught Fire, Burned to the Ground "Duh"

 

It looks usable to me!

 

See it's right-side up for Kiwi Jeff

 

Should have been painted with High temp paint!
Glad no-one was hurt.....sucks for the loss though

 

• Seen worse fixed on the hamb

 

I would have drug it home as well, and I'm not even a Ford guy! Gene

 

Good find!

Sent from my SM-J727T1 using The H.A.M.B. mobile app

 

just burns me up when this happens - Ha!

 

Looks like it was pretty solid before the fire. Almost nothing is beyond saving for a lot of very talented guys on here. Some of you guys just amaze me with metal working skills.

 

Doesn't look much worse than the other upside down rusty Model A coupe that a HAMBer dug out of a ditch recently - maybe combine the two?

 

You can't buy patina like that in a can.
