I think there might have been some late forties. Down by a Kyle farm where I bought my 1954. They are a lil pricey though

I know of a body shell. The car has been burned when they did a slough burn. Now that would be starting from scratch. I don't think you would want that car.
I wonder if Ray woods up by Carrot river may have one or what about Sheldons Uncles farm.

I dont recall if my uncle has any like that.. But I will check next time I head up there. Ray woods might, and it would be cheap, but its a bit of a drive, and the condition will vary.

I talked to Ray at my uncles funeral, and Ray was telling me he was thinning out his yard.

I met a nephew of his and he said he was still going strong. Yes Ray's place he sells stuff cheap. That is where I got my 54 Plymouth from. Kicking myself. He had a 68 Plymouth Ragtop for $200 at that time. I would of had more fun with that.

This weekend, not sure, next weekend nope. My weekend will kinda depend on the weather this week, looks like I might end up working this weekend. Next weekend is that auction in blaine lake.

If I had my car, and you didnt work tomorrow Id say lets pin tire tomorrow, its rainy and I got nothing else to do! My car is finally getting the rear bumper fixed on it though.
