Well a UFO landed in my front yard today.

I still have to inventory all the parts. It has all the trim and the sun visor. Everything is there.

This car is straight as an arrow. Not one dent, no rust (except minimal surface rust) Not a big deal.

It's 71 years old and I'm the third owner. 59,000 miles on the clock. The PO bought it from the estate of the original owner. Obviously the sun has taken its toll on the paint. But I can live with that. I've been rolling my truck in "patina" for 12 years now.

Wifey loves it.

That's a plus.

The seller gave me the number of a guy that called him after I bought it. He want's to buy it bad. The seller said I could make some money. Nope. It's not for sale.

Now the work begins. Get the old girl back on the road.

Look how tiny my Porsche looks behind it.
