I dont have no parts for the hood it is just sitting on the car. I am missing all the parts to put the hood back on the body.

 

Hinges would be a start. There are also four bolts and specialty washer that hold the hinges on. Hood springs are also needed. On my '51 there is also a brace that runs beneath the hood and attaches to each hinge. Think that covers it except for a few bolts needed for the brace which also needs a bolt in the centre of the hood.

It'll buff out?  How many of us are tempted to restore this here bidness coupe? Find some rare doors, rare rear glass, etc?  Maybe just a mind game?   

No, I guess some cars are doomed to be parts cars.

haha looks like it's only missing 1 door. from the rocker it sure looks like a solid body. you could do worse I bet.....

I can practically guarantee you there is someone out there with a rusty coupe parts car that has the doors,fender,and rear glass that could take that one and make a complete car.

 

The trick is in getting these people together.

You are right. No vehicle is unrestorable if wanted badly enough.

Was in a hurry I just got the car & car was covered with surface rust & it was suppose to rain that weekend. I got it painted on the weekend in between it raining. I hurried up an shot some paint on it to protect it. Yea right now it has over spray on it & runs etc.. need to clean it all up. Have not had time to clean up the over spray. Still need to get a cop out here an sign off on the vin check & work on getting it running.  With me living in the city limits the city would have been all over this car with it sitting in my driveway & surface rust all over the car. Here they can make you move the car were it dont have current plates on it & give you so long to put it out of sight or be fined for it.

check an $500 to get title through Lost Title Solutions. I listed the car for sale see if I could trade or sell it. I traded it today for some guns going to sell them an hopefully buy a 78 Ford Ranchero that runs an drives with clear title. The Plymouth good car looks like fun to fix an drive but right now I need something runs an drives an haul some stuff. If I kept the Plymouth it would take over a year just to get it on the road cause I would not be putting much into it per month. Fun car & great group of people here that are helpful an have some great info on vehicles.
