    Cool project. I just traded a hot rod for a 1955 Nomad “rolling empty shell project”. Just like your car, some previous owner tore into it, did floors/rockers/tailpan and then the car sat unfinished for 20 (maybe more) years. I’m going to try and make it a running/driving car again.

      Wow! That sounds awesome. Keep me posted on how your project goes. Would love to see pictures of that. Hope you can get running/driving again.

    Nice! I remember going to Bloomington with my Dad in probably around 1975 and begging him to get a 1965 Nassau Blue convertible that at the time was $6000. He (of course) said no.🤣

      Oh man, if only he had agreed to that. Imagine what it would be worth now. Thanks for your comment.

    I guess they had a “Fitz” when they cracked it up. And every time I see an old Corvette on a dirt floor like this I also have a “Fitz” just throwing it out there 😂

      Haha! Like the humor. Yes, I can totally relate.

    The restoration will probably cost more than it’s worth but hopefully someone will save it.
