Thanks for the insight Guys, I passed on the 36 Pontiac( turned out to be a rust bucket and the seller would not deal)
I did find a 39 Buick 2dr Bus Coupe that I did buy. It is an original 60's hot rod that had been stored since 68. The car is rust free and straight as an arrow. Has a .030 over 283 SBC, Dunstoff(sp) 30/30 solid lifter cam, and a Saginaw 3spd. The interior is Blk&Wht tuck & roll, all the garnish molding have been chromed. The dash has a 58 Corvette speedo. and instruments, very nicely done( no hack job ). Almost forgot, the headers go through the fender wells and can be uncapped.
The old owner thought the engine was frozen up from sitting but when I got the car delivered to my shop it turned out to be the water pump only, and I had the car running within 2 hours, after sitting 36 years
Thanks Again Norm
Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
