Just a few years ago, if some had told me that Justin was going to one day buy a 50 year old car without a radio and powered by a 36 horse power engine, I would have said they were nuts.  I guess the boy is finally growing up!   :lol:  8)

I had a few minutes to look it over for the first time this evening.  It's not perfect, but hey, it's 53 years old and almost totally original (other than the respray).  It would probably be a pretty easy restoration, but how often do you see seat covers over 50 years old that are still presentable?  All it really "needs" is a set of wide whitewalls and a few vintage accessories . . . and an occational drive down some scenic backroads!

Justin, If you slam that car or modify that car
 I will KILL you !!. I repeat I WILL KILL YOU !!!!!!!
    That car is way to nice to even think about that. I repeat-  I will KILL you.
     All that I would do to that little Jewell is Paint the rims the original colors and enjoy.
     How often does a person come across a Oval that is in that kind of condition ? Pretty damn rare. You have been warned. :evil:  :roll:

He wont really KIll you more like slightly damaged/partialy maim.
It only hurts until the morphine drip kicks in at the hospital,besides chicks dig scars and slamned ovals.

I also think a nice papawed og oval is just as fine, I mean you are getting older and all.

Remind me to get some pics of what the @sshat who bought my 52 did to it. The good thing is it's in France, so the first German that comes by the  french owner will probably surrender it to him. :lol:

The only "Slam" job will be me dropping a complete Dasher on Justin pumpkin head. I know where the Dasher is.  Help me out here Zen. :roll:
