Today I helped a friend take his 61 Chevy conv to a local mechanic.. His spare parts which are scattered thru the trees gave up these..
This one was next to it... I like it!!

Which one are you restoring first?
I think I would like your friend.

Gotta love these Hillbilly mechs. You'll note on the Dodge bumper is sporting a a/c condenser,
Repurposed as an oil cooler. Mmmmmm..

Jimmy, love to see you pull in to the next rally in that Dodge! Another project in the works?

The Newell is a 68.. It is original everything, partial kitchen, lots of water damage ..among other things both windshields are broken, n the structure is crushed in at both mirrors. From 50 feet looks nice... I think it's dead... The Dodge has possibilities though...

Thats too bad about the Newell, that old dodge does look cool. Does it run? What were you thinking for a power train? Original? 5.9 cummins? 426hemi? Any more pics?
