In response to eplantage
my story goes like this.im a car nut since i could walk i have been turning wrenches.
so i had my 69 lincolin and was commuting almost 100km back and forth to work every day,suffice to say the gas bill was getting nutty!
so i sell the 'coon and get a 1st gen vw rabbit so i could have a "gas miser" to drive,drove it for 1 summer and over the winter tore into it and turned it into a show stopper barn burning hatch back! the thing was very fast and looked great.......but it was still a fwd hatch back.
i told the wife eventually i would buy another old ride,well one night i was checking out the local kijiji classifieds and just fell in love when i saw my 50 more door fleetline! that roof line!! the hood grill it was mine all mine.
i called the wife over to see it,she laughed and said "sell the vw and buy it!"
done and done. and i could not be happier.
i have owned alot of old cars since i could drive and by far this 50 chevy has been the most fun to put together and find parts for and the comraderie between 49-54 chevy owners is awesome.
