My wife and I went to look at it and Joe told us what he needed out of it and my wife said happy birthday. So I now have my Hudson, Nash and AMC. Being a huge AMC person, I have always wanted one of each. The Met is drivable the way she is, but will need a little bit of rust removed in the near future and a paint job. I figure I can drive her as is for a number of years while I get a couple of other projects taken care of.
