    All you need to finish this 'project' is a complete 1931 Essex. :D

    This is not a rebuildable project. It's mor like a yard ornament. Hang x-mas lights on it or plant flowers in it...Lol.

    It still wont surprize me if it sells. I think it is the lure of e-bay. I have seen worse sell for more. Depends on RAT ROD fever I guess.

    Well Half Baked, somebody has to pay for the prize money this car has cost the shooting gallery over the years.

    Even the people in the land of the long white cloud, wouldnt want to undertake a project like that , though mine wasnt a lot better, but at least it had most of the other parts

    I've rebuilt worse, but this is a blatant case of false advertising - it is just a bare body shell. If I had the doors, seats, glass, dash, or another donor car, with complete chassis then it would be a starter for a coupe, but not for that sort of dosh.

    You can tell that he just pulled it out from where it was probably part of a flood-control berm, or the like. Used to see these all the time...not so any more,

    There is a Club Member with a ranch in Southern California. Sometime before the war they used cars from a local Hudson dealer's scrap pile to fill an arroyo (fancy word for big ditch), then buldozed earth over them. There are bits of Hudsons and Essexes sticking up through the ground along a 3-400 yard stretch.
