Barn Find Non Supercar
 

This car has been in a barn for the last 26yrs.My wife works with the daughter of the previous owner.We have known about it for about 6months.After letting other cars slip through my fingers this one wasn't going to.The wife wanted to know why I had to spoil X-mas as she was going to get it for me.I asked why it was for me as she is the one who is excited about it.Don't get me wrong so am I.So here are some pictures.
As found in the barn.

That lady's a keeper. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Although I think I would have to restore the car. Maybe with a little,............... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/crazy.gif OK a LOT of elbow grease that paint might snap right back! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

And if that doesn't work out, there's always this route.............

Rob,Know of any good driver's? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif
Ya know if I keep collecting cars like this I'm gonna run out of room to put them.Maybe Cumby has some room.LoL!! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif
The motor is still free so I think I'm gonna try to fire it up for a few laps around the back field.Should be a riot as no seat belts,and mechanical brakes https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif.

Hey Chttps://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gifhttps://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gifL!!!

Is that a '28?.

If you rod it, be careful how much you cut out of the top...sedans can get that too low look pretty easy compared to what may look good on a coupe..
