Yup, she’s still here. After sitting in the chassis shop 3 years I still have it. She’s a complete roller at this point. All cleaned up and ready to either put the motor in and make rev or find someone worthy of finishing her. Don’t know which yet.

Great looking car. Selling the car as is or finishing it up is a dilemma. When in a hole when do you stop digging. If you have the money finish it an enjoy it. MO. Long time ago lost interest in a 62 Dodge with a race Hemi gas prices were part of the reason. (1974) Sold the car, dumb, for $900. Jump to 1985 called the guy I sold it to and bought the driveline back $2,000.

So close @lxmodguy ...it looks awesome. How much do you need to still spend to complete? Or do you have the parts and just need the time?

Are we talking “action figures” like Star Wars? Just rattling your chain. Finish it out, but if you don’t want to, I’m sure you could top dollar for it as a rolling chassis.

The only way to ever dig out of a hole is finish it and enjoy! Love it, that's a work of art!

The rear is all detailed and ready to go. Strange S tract with 3.25 gears and 35 splines. Ready for whatever gets thrown at it.
