Customs Help... whats this shoebox worth

  1. Where's the wind windows.
     
  2. I agree with you. Coupes all look funky and ugly chopped. Like a skinny hot chick with a long fat big ass

    If you got it for what you suggested earlier, that looks like a hell of a deal, especially with that interior (unless the photos are way off). Now get it running and driving and check the bottom and let us know!

    Looks great. Don't know what you had to pay for it but I'm a little jealous.
     
  7. I had to do this to my '50 coupe. And I'm not done!

    I got it for $81.80 over what it originally sold for in 1950.

    Floor pans need patches but not an entire pan. Frame is excellent. Will need outer rockers and quarter patches. But its driveable as is.

    I got all the original paperwork down to the bill of sale and option list. Also got all the reciepts from the engine rebuild.

    I don't exactly know what it went for back in those days, but I have the original invoice for my '51 Coupe, and it went for $1775.28, including $16.45 for the turn signals (although I have never seen a '51 without them), and $25 each for the visor and seat covers.

    Looks to be the deal of the year. Congratulations!

  18. Love the alligatored paint, that is real patina from sitting in the sun, get the car running and drive the wheels off. HRP

    The interior looks great, wish mine looked that good. HRP
     
  19. The original MSRP in 1950 was $1,589 if you bought it for $81.80 over that you stole it and are one of the luckiest people around, congratulations. HRP
