Projects Forty Nine Field Found Ford George and Eddie Coupe

A little steel wool, some window screen and a gallon of dura-glass...and she'd be real purdy

I'm used to starting with NY rusty absolute crap...but I'm afraid this one scares me

 

Turn it into a gasser.

 

About 2 gallons and a match.

 

I have every "little magazine" published and most of them memorized, and never ever heard of "George and Eddy". Do this car a kindness and let slowly sink into the earth where it's at.

 

A nice solid 4 door sedan could receive that roof, B pillars and doors and make a coupe out of it, definitely not junk. Must have been wild in it's day.

I think if you wanted to restore it to it's previous condition, that'd be about all you could reuse, maybe the front fenders as a starting point, and the rest would just be a reference.

But it's definitely not junk.

 

Must have been customised when it was very young to be that far gone now. If you want to rebuild it i would find another and use this as a pattern to make a clone, waaay less work.

 

I would be chasing the truck NOT that 50 Ford.

 

If you want to resc ue this car. Do what I did. Take pic`s of it and cut the front end off and hang it on the wall with a cool grille in it.

 

Yikes....hard to unsee that

 

If you are a history buff, buy it or take it and hang in your garage ceiling wall whatever...pretty neat conversation piece.

 

Did you end up saving it? Doesn't look that bad from here, but I'm used to Florida cars...

 

I remember a lot of cars like that. Remember when we would look through the little pages and had no money? We would grab a car with no engine or trans ect... then customize it. Most never made it past the welding stage. We didn't have any money to finish them but it was good experience. Then they ended up scrapped or a field car. Lippy
