With time, patience, some money, and a lot of hard work, that could be a very nice car! I would love something like that to work on! A Long Term Project!

Good luck! And keep the updates coming!

Looks good, from the pics the rust looks mostly surface....
Your goal is very reachable.....you just have to be dedicated like BUGGOFF said and have funds available.
You will, at some point want to give up but then you`d realise that you are in too deep...I needed two years to build my enthusiasm again after finding my pan was made up of fibreglass and chicken-wire :jerkoff:

Can you give me an idea of where outside Pretoria this guy is.

In one of the pictures is an early Chevy Impala. I have a customer looking for one as a possible project and I'd like to schlepp out there and have a look.

I tried the phone number, but to no avail.
