    Wow, what a find! I wonder what it would cost for a frame-off…

    I don’t know if this car would be a suitable candidate for any sort of restoration. If water did get into the vault and the lower quarters are rusted out all the way around, I would think that the chassis and frame would have been affected also. Not really something that I would want to throw any money at.

    That will buff right out …. The car would of been in better shape if it stayed in my grandma’s garage for 50 years…..

    Classic Detroit iron. You shut the driver’s door on that thing and it sounds like a tank hatch closing thumbsup.gif

    Daihatsus, Suzukis and Yugos merely bounce off the side of it icon_cheesygrin.gif

    We had a car almost as massive once – a ’77 Chrysler New Yorker Brougham. 19-1/2 feet long, 4,800 pounds of 440-powered American steel 😯

    It’s funny how the small cars sense it’s around, and stay out of its way jumpy.gif Sort of like poodles who yelp and run behind their master’s legs when a 150-pound rottweiler struts down the street icon_punk.gif
