I got a text yesterday with a picture of an old car. I text him back and ask where is it and is it for sale? A few minutes later he says that its for sale and tells me where it is. I headed out this morning and picked it up. 36 Chevy Sedan 2 door with the original drivetrain still intact. Not going to start a build thread until I finish 2 other projects. But here it is. I was told that it sat in a barn for 40 years in West TN.

Going to check the wheel base and see what I can use for a swap. Would like it to have a modern drivetrain but keep the full body.
 
I had a chance at one of those a few months ago but it was a 4 door. It had been outside all these years and was in worse shape. I passed.

You should just let me stop buy and pick it up on my way thru next weekend!

Love that body style, nice score.
 
Got more pictures this afternoon. Looks like the leafs were wrapped with something at some time. The oil level is a little low but its clean. ;D

Can anyone help decode the body tag?
 
Nice score zpi, some of my dreams are more complete than that but reality,----not so much. Sorry to hear you have to part with it. You know, there are collectors, tinkerers, and finders in our hobby, and we need them all. Good luck with your projects and the distractions.
