Guys,
Just purchased a 52 Splitter and yes its one made with the oval dash.. But its on a 1966 pan.
Heater channels are shot but all the body is perfect.
I have Original seats - dash is complete - and all the glass
Also came with 36er motor - 1956 Fender front and back - Swan deck lid - 56 hood.
Know I just got to put it all back together!!!
This is my dream bug cant wait to get it on the road!!!!!!!!
Troy

The box truck worked out great!!!!!
The price means nothing when the reward is so great...
But the work will take awhile but will be the dream car I always wanted....

As your dream car I think it is worth every penny you cant put a price on your dream or you vision. I say lets start building!!!! I had fun helping you haul it in the box truck. It also added to my first time list. How cool it was to pick up the body above our heads and move it!!!!!!!!
We will be rolling soon!
