    That SUCKS!

    If you find more than one 57 convert,
    LET ME KNOW!
    [​IMG]

    But more importantly,
    Now you have an excuse to do WHATEVER you want w/your delivery,
    Chop,
    El camino conversion,
    convertable,
    Whatever!

    Everything you've EVER wanted to do to it, now you have NO EXCUSE not too!

    No one is saying this doesn't SUCK,
    But you COULD make it into a blessing...?

    What a beauty it was! Has to be a rare body style.
    I'd rather have that one than a 2 door!
    Sad,sad,sad...

    damn man, my condolances... I'd been so sick over it i'd puke... damn.

    However, some of the most elaberate customs were built from wrecked cars... I can seriously see her with a lift-off carson top... The top is junked, but other than the rear inner quarter, the rest looks rebuildable...

    That really hurts, and if that car means that much to you, you should try and save it. ( And maybe do a Chop at the same time?) I know where there is a 4Dr wagon, Ill go ask if you want that for parts.

    Man...that sucks! I hope you find something to replace it. I still remember my high school car (not nearly as cool as yours) and the great times I had....on a lighter note, I recommend taking a few wacks at that tree with an axe, might offer some closure. [​IMG]
     
  23. Your sedan Delivery can definitely be repaired.Will need another roof -but definitely repairable in my opinion.

  25. Bad news.The carson top idea could work,but it would never be the same.Who did the pinstriping on the rear door? Almost looks like Hightowner's work.

    That sucks ass. What a heartbreaker. [​IMG]

    I feel your pain. Mine got it about 8 years ago. I got off lucky though, mine was fixable. And the city paid for it.

    Sorry. [​IMG] I thought this was a "bird shit" post, too. I just hope you get a bundle, so you can buy something you want, and still slice this one and have some fun with it, too.

    Man that sucks! You have my condolences on your loss. You weren't in it at the time, and at least your still here to be unhappy. See a real good body man.

    i really like the idea of an elcamino. i might be way off, but it seems like that would be the easiest to do as it sits now if you could find a truck cab for parts maybe. fucking shame, man. i hope all the other HAMBers about to be hit by the hurricane make it alright. batten down the hatches, everybody.
