Diamond In The Rust Instead of Diamond In The Rough?

This is what happens when you have lunch break and go driving looking behind house in the surrounding neighborhoods. This one just had to follow me back to work. So whats your thought clean title 72 roller Disc brakes & 12 bolt rear?????

PS you should seen the faces on the guys when I left for lunch and came back with a Chevelle.
She's rough but I have fixed worst

James,
Looks like you'll be helping keep Goodmark in business buying new body panels. Like you said, worse cars have been brought back to life. How are the doors and floors?

It reminds me of an old buddies car that I could have bought back up in NY. A '72 Chevelle SS 454...minus the 454 and 4-spd.
I rode in the car when it was new. Man, what a ride.

Lets put it this way I did a camaro for a guy a few years back and I order so much sheet metal through Goodmark I qualified to become a wholesaler LOL

It will need floor but that is cake just do a once piece. The doors are ok I will be able to get away with skins. So I haven't decide what to do with the car yet. If my wife has it her way it will be fixed but who knows at this point.

Thanks James

Normally I'm not one for decor, but that is freakin awesome! 8) Almost gives that "sometimes they come back" vibe.



hmmmm, I have a parts car laying around, wonder if I could get away with this. :rofl:

That's a pretty cool display. Reminds me of the saying that "Old fishermen don't die, they just smell that way"!
