    I don't have much history on this as it changed hands a few times from the original owner to when I bought it. I do know it was last registered in Indiana in 1965 to Bud Handshoe from Garrett, Indiana. It appears that he was in process of installing the 327/Muncie and rear end from a donor early 60's car when process stopped. The chassis and floorpan show signs that it had a previous non original drivetrain in it prior (guessing flathead?). It has an original dropped axle and split bones and somebody really like louvers... Hoping it has some hot rodding/drag racing history behind it as some point. Anyone???? 1.jpg 2.jpg 3.jpg 4.jpg

    Neat car. Not crazy about the louvers. But I love the stance and those headers!

    I think the headers and the light reflecting off the valve covers from the hood louvers is my favorite part

    Cool old car! Louvers on hood and trunk lid look good. Can't say I like them on the fenders though.
