My day was an easy one Steve, just hauling gravel, no Bobcat work.
That Meteor might be cheap to start with but with no engine, seats it`s not likely to end up that way John. How is the body, any rust, any other missing parts?

I'd put a modern drive train in it anyways and seats from another vehicle. Body looks fairly good and all the trim is still on it. Not sure if I'll be able to get it yet but going to go check it out closer. Friend of mine said body panels are available for them. I believe it's a 59 not a 58[

Do have a donor vehicle in mind John? Anything with a carb is getting pretty hard to find around here now.
My neighbour had a 59 wagon yrs ago, they are a cool car.

Carbs can be replaced with a throttle body now, thinking of changing over my pickup with one after I finish things up with the panel..I'd put a another 351 w under the hood of this one if I get it..or possibly a 408 stroker..

Those are my favorites too Perry.
Hello Shaun, an easy day at the office?
We`re finally getting to see the sun John, no smoke here so far.
How`s your day going Steve? I`m off to a small car show at a local church soon.
