Let's see the roughest car you started your build with..

I borrowered this title off a guy on "Ford Barn" but thought it would be fitting here on the hamb.. I'm sure there are some pretty rough starts to builds, let's see them....

 

. Finally got a good parts car for it.

 

Do pick ups count?
This is my before and after.

 

I'm currently restoring this one-'59 Sport Fury convertible-

 

This doesn't look to rough to me.

On the other hand,,this is extremely rough. HRP

 

My buddys 33 Plymouth coupe. It spent several years cut into about 6 pieces laying in a field.
You can check out a thread titled "Uncle Ricks 33 Plymouth". A real reinCARnation that is finally taking shape.

 

This is my before and after

 

Unfortunately the after pics are also of an un-drivable car.

 

Don't we already have a " before and after" thread?


Oh, this is just the "before" thread. Carry on.

 

Not mine, but this is what I specialize in. When I buy a car to build I'm a little smarter than my customers!

 

Come on jim. Just do a little work on one of your cars every day. And one day it will be done Just pick the one you like best.

 

But he is making progress. HRP

 

look up JimSibley. At times I think that guy can turn a 5 gallon pail of rusting crumbs into a nice looking hotrod in a week.

This is the one I'm currently working on.
