    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.

    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 😂

    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.🤣

      @McGintyMotorcars  Před 4 měsíci

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

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