Suppose to be a Florida car, bought there in 91'. Towed it Michigan. They started to restore it, bought a new engine. Got the engine in, lost interest in the restore and never even fired the new engine. She thought a 1941, was what she was told. I'm thinking 1641 but never know until you can actually measure it and figure it out. Anyway as Steve said other then pans, channels and kick panel pretty solid. The early pop-outs are worth what he paid for it. Just what he needs another project, just like me.

next time i'm at Bren's I will take pics of the interior and motor for you Steve. The interior smelled like mice or Barn, it stunk. I vaccumed it out last night and we put dryer sheets in it for now. The whole interior will be taken out and redone, to get rid of the smell.

That looks a lot better in the light. I didn't see that it had pop-outs till Ken said so. Going to be one sweet ride.
