    Ok Guys,
    So im sure you remember my post from a few months saying that I found a 32 3 window for 5,000(hypothetically), and wondering how to go about getting a loan. Well, I didnt. I sold my 32 5w to HumanFly here on the hamb and took the money to get this one. It exists! Im so excited and overwhelmed at the same time! The little mazda in the pictures got in a wreck on the way home. Not me driving. But thankfully the deuce didnt get too scuffed up. She is at home now safe in the confines of my garage. Enjoy the pics! I am not selling it!
    Dan
    PS. Yeah thats me pretending to drive it. I got caught off guard!

    Goodness! There isn't a straight bit on it. You've got your work cut out for you on this one. I can't wait to see what becomes of it.

    I have the drivers side door too. It was laying next to it. I also have a decklid on the way thanks to Harm's way here on the hamb. Super nice guy. The subrails and floor boards ae really solid, as is thw whole car. The only rust is on the header panel.

    Yep, looks pretty hammered! ;) What did your 5 window look like??? Nothing that can't be fixed with years of time, buckets of skill, or stacks of Benjamin Franklin. Keep us posted.

    WOOOOOOW thats all I can say. I was getting down thinking my A would never come back to life but that 32 is straight, well its not straight, but I was going to say STRAIGHT UP NUTS!

    Good job and I really hope you didn't pay 5k for it. I know its a 32 but thats quite a bit. But if its what you wanted and you got the other metal I guess I can see how you could pay that.

    Have fun and POST TONS of Pics!

    I think you should do bare minimum work to get it on frame, doors safe and latches, and leave wrinkles and all. The "As-Found Deuce"

    Love it.

    Hey Fellas,
    For those who think i overpaid, I respect your opinion, but I love this freakin car. I didnt get it to resell it. I have been sleepless thinking about this car for 6 months, trying to save up and buy it. I am very happy with what i paid for it. I am 20, and didnt want to have to wait till im old as dirt to afford one. I want to drive a deuce three window. Not a fiberglass one. I want a real one. I got exactly what I wanted and I cant wait to DO WORK!
    Thanks

    You da man! You can never pay too much for a duece coupe. Especially if it's what you really want. Should make for some serious before-and-after WOW factor when it's done.

    I read on here somewhere that you can't pay too much for a 32. You can only buy too early.. Looking forward to a great build thread..
