Projects Look what followed me home from Jersey

really cool. I like the side mount spare.

I think that would be cool to restore back to completely original.... OK maybe a 261 in place of the original mill....may as well put a 5 speed behind it with an open driveline while I got my wrenches out. That's it though...plus an alternator and new wireing... and disc brakes with 5 lugs all around. maybe some black tuck in roll... that 261 will need 3 carbs and duals as well.

other that that totally restored to original.

 

why is everyone against rebuilding the ole' stovebolt anyway? are they not tried and true?

 

damn everybody is leaving jersey now a great old car.best of luck with your new old car,its a keeper. where in jersey was that beauty hiding.

 

sick, cool you have the pics of where you picked it up, I wish I did the same with some of my cars

 

nitto on that, nice score.. looks pretty solid

 

When I was a kid our next door neighbor was an antique guy. He had a model T and a '36 Chev coupe in the detached garage/ workshop. Whenever the weather was crummy we would go in the garage and play in the Chev. It was in similar condition to yours. Man, I can still remember what it smelled like. We had a lot of fun in that car. Recently talked to the owner and he sent it down the road a few years back.

 

I tell you what!!! Some people have all the luck!!! I'd sell my 54 Bel Air and my 57 3100 for the opportunity to buy a 30s model car in that kind of shape. MANNN

 

I like it....very nice!

 

yeah, less miles and fewer riders

 

It was in Port Republic.

 

Believe me it has that old car smell!
