Hot Rods I just made an amazing trade

I just got off the phone with the owner of a 1939 ford standard coupe. He is going to trade me straight across for my off topic 1970 buick wildcat convertible. I am freaking stoked right now. I'll post up some pictures when I get it home.

I,d be stickin that Wildcat on a trailor to his front yard .I wouldnt even drive it incase some texting dickhead hit me
GO BABY GO ! That is Great!

 

Glad you're happy, condition of each car?

 

I drive the wildcat at least once a week I'm not worried. I need to take my kids for one last drive in the car. I've been wanting a coupe from the 30's for like 15 years or more. I'm reaking stoked.

The wildcat is an unrestored driving car. The coupe is fairly rust free, he pulled the front clip off but has all the parts. He had it running and driving last year. It has working brakes and new tires on it. The interior is a little ruff but all there. I'm super happy with the trade.

Congratulations, the 39 Ford coupes are on of my favorite cars. HRP

Wow I am almost jealous.

 

Yeah I almost can't believe it is happening.

Great. Glad both parties are happy. While the front end is off, check into what it would take to convert it to a DeLuxe model..

 

Congrats!

 

We better have some pics soon.

A friend of mine has one that I have had my eye on! With the little V8 60.
Nice score. Enjoy!

 

Sounds like a great trade, but you Know how we are. We Need pictures!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Sounds like a good trade, ( not that I don't like wildcats) '39 ford coupes really represent the quintessential hot rod to me and are one of my favorite cars! looking forward to pics!

 

Yes1 The '39 Coupe is a great car. I'll Google the Buick, clueless what they look like. Bob

 

Way to go that’s awesome

Sounds like a great trade. I'm probably one of the few that actually prefer the styling of the 1939 Deluxe grille and headlights over the 1940 although both are great looking cars.

 

I'll pulled some pics from his ad. View attachment 4602088

Everybody’s happy! Almost sounds like a perfect world!

 

That thing is super rad!!! Score!!!!

 

The wildcat is a fine car, but it is worth less than 1/2 what the 39 is worth. I think the p/o got in over his head and wanted out. You could have some ahead of you but in the long run I think you come out WAY ahead.

 

Yeah he said he is getting rid of projects he has too many. He is having a hard time working on things. So to him a running driving convertible is a good thing. He was more interested in dealing with me because I wanted to leave it with the flathead in it.

You kicked ass on the deal. An entire '39 coupe with intact floors! Not busting on the Buick.
You could damn near scour it clean, reassemble and drive it.

 

Sorry, I know there is a 65 cut off just figured I would post up a pic of the car for reference. Wont post any more.
