rocketraider Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 I agree. A rust-free car is worth $900 if all you do is part it. These are mechanically simple and straightforward cars with good club and parts support and the fat-fendered look of late forties GM cars is always in style.If the engine is free, all the better. It's not a powerhouse by any stretch, but it was a dependable engine and any machine shop can rebuild it. Shouldn't be too hard to find someone to service the Hydra-Matic either- they were very simple in those days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
