I've been mainly playing with A body stuff lately, but I had a 64 savoy I built from a roller back in mid 90's before anyone hardly had any use for such a beast. ya I know, I went brain froze and sold it. I fibnally learned to build what I like and forget about whats considered the "car" to own..
I have read about guys making the 4 into 2 door. I've rebuilt quite a few old mopes since mid 80's but just wonder if this is feasible unless I have donor car handy. these old things are getting harder to find here in Mo Ok Ks area. i'm not afraid of the cutting weldin body work. I found a running more doorpoly car for like $700 ( probably less).
any posts on here for such( converting the more door?)??? I havn't found anything....
maybe a member knows a guy I stumbled on, he does this and is somewhere s w of Kansas city in ks I think. maybe someone knows him. I don't have his number or city though. lost it.
I know with the economy and old car market as soft as it is, I should just look for 2 door project.
I have a couple of good duster drivers for sale or trade. feather duster and 72 on FABO. the a body market is slow too do doubt!!
after lookin at "fore sale" ads here looks like nothing is selling,at least in the early B cars. I didn't look at the 69 runners etc. i'm just interested in another early b or a 66-7 bel maybe.
for what the market actually is, looks like most is overpriced. even cars I would say are fairly priced aren't selling that I can see..... I see NOTHIN sellin her in FABO.. I realize anything over the price at the crusher is " salesmanship"> LOL
