    The rear cross member is out of a ford prior to 1949. So it had a transverse rear spring. The frame appears to be hand made from channel iron. I bet it had a flathead Ford V8  in it's early life. Soooo much rust..

    Well i went to bid and it had already gone over what i was going to pay.

    Started at $1 and ended at $3,545.00 NZD ($2548.87USD) 
    bit much for that much rust of unknown pedigree if you ask me.
