Kind of sad to think a nice looking Hot Rod got pushed outside or left in a poor garage and allowed to go down hill like that, looking forward to the rebirth. Bob
Yes just a little to far gone to keep it as is . A little preservation would have gone a long ways . Sent from my iPhone using The H.A.M.B. mobile app
Some idiots in Santa Clara back in '56 junked a '32 Five window because of wood that was in this condition. I was 14, and had nightmares about this for 2 years, when I found my deal on a '32 Fiver... But imagine! There were cabinet men around in '56 that could have made wood patterns for that coupe!
Out with the Mold...and in with the New...Old...great to see these old relics coming out to see daylight again.
Now some have identified the holes in the floor as radio based cutouts...the 2 large dash holes and plates are Glove Box/Clock and added gauge such as a tach...? Or am I just being a Stogy......that is a cool dash amongst all the other cool...and hey I'm a wee tad 32 challenged...
I had a 55 Buick 264 in my 40 Ford hot rod, the combination fuel and vacuum pump was used by Buick back then. Other GM cars may have also used it. Sent from my SM-J320V using The H.A.M.B. mobile app

Hell of a story lurking in there somewhere . . . now if we can just find out who, what, when, where and how! It is a Hell of a car.

Wow. This is like someone throwing their 'vette,Harley, or Deuce in the riverbed 1940-5 1950...to avoid erosion... or just sit out to rot. Nice save. It's in good hands. . . .
