Joe Cocuzza Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 So this one was listed here before and the price was $15,950.00 Now it's $16,500.......I guess because now it's on a trailer instead of the ground. Maybe the owner thinks that's worth a few hundred more $$$$$'s?????????? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roysboystoys Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 Worst " workmanship" I've ever seen. Seems a blind man could do better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Luddy Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 This will require far more $$$, skill, time, and patience than it will ever be worth. Cool car at one time, but that time has long since past unfortunately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalef62 Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 (edited) Looks very reminiscent of the one that was on these pages several years ago that the guy was trying to fix up and then sell? Does anyone remember that one? I think it is! Edited March 11, 2023 by dalef62 (see edit history) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif in Calif Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 I didn't think it was worth it until I saw the alligator skin dash. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the same car but in much worse condition now (if that's possible) 3 hours ago, Leif in Calif said: I didn't think it was worth it until I saw the alligator skin dash. I am not an expert or professional in any aspect(s) of restoring a car (body work, paint, mechanics...) BUT, after messing with them for 53 years, I can hold my own (keep the comments to yourselves please!!!!) I appreciate all old(er) cars (especially Woodies) and I couldn't live with myself if I took a car like this one, which was restorable at one point, (I have seen pictures of it before "the butcher" got his hands on it), and did this to it. I am willing to try anything to restore a car but I know my limitations...... I feel sad that this car was ruined to the point of it being more or less worthless But I feel sadder for the alligator that gave up its skin for "THIS" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brooklyn Beer Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 I was thinking of screwing some old pallet lumber to the sides of my 31 Franklin but this look changed my mind. I will instead screw some old pallet lumber to the sides of my 46 Dodge and use shelf paper on the dash 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he will be able to supply you with the expertise needed.......😉😉😉😉😉 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
