OK, Ive decided to put some feelers out.

Im thinking about trying to get an early notch, Im not expecting a show car. Rust is ok, but no structural rust.

I'd like to swap my 57 big window bug and maybe some cash for the likely candidate.
57 is complete. floorpan is rust free as I remember (its under tarps at the mother in laws place) Engine did run for the short hop 5 mins down the road. Was quite exciting!

Here are the details on the 57, shes a rat ready to go! Good honest car. Like i said I have some cash set aside too.
Ive listed the points that need attention, and there are plenty of pics to see. Inspections obviously welcome.

Will send pics and more details to anyone who might be intersted.

Lemmie know! Cheers!

I get urges.. If I find the right car I might sell all the others to complete it...

Im at a crossroads at the moment, I have the 69 Auto Square, 56 Oval and 57 Big window bugs...
Im getting back into it all after 18 months off due to having a little lady come along...

Im getting frustrated on lack of progress. Do I start on the Oval, do I finish the square, do I just get the 57 on the road quickly... bah... so indecisive...

Everytime I plan something, its gets changed beyond my control... same for everyone else too I expect... but its bugging me.

HE GOT ONE!!!

I was looking for a tank, he gave me one and I lined him up with my mechanic (who had a project in his yard).

Gibbo is now the owner of a solid '65 notch running a 1600. Yippee!!!
