Lucky day for plywood

[Charlie Olson]

My mechanic/auto repair friend Art, found this complete 1946 P15 parts car; which has virtually everything I need, on it, to finally restore PLYWOOD. I went up, to the garage in PHX, to see it today and was really excited to see how many items are in such good shape. On the way home, I stopped at my local grocery store to buy some stuff and paid with a $10 bill I had in my pocket. The gal at the register asked me if I really wanted to give it to the store, since it seems like a really old bill, but in very good shape. I looked at it and realized I had a 1950 Series C $10 bill, in very good condition. I can't remember where I got it, but it was sometime yesterday. I exchanged that $10 bill a new one and looked on Ebay for similar $10 bills and found out that they range from $15 to $65, depending on condition. I am going to put it in PLYWOOD's glove compartment for an additional good luck charm. Anyway, here is a link to the ad with the parts car, here in PHX.

Looks good in some ways---not so great in others.

As long as the parts you need are usable, that's the important thing.

Glad it turned up at a fortuitois time.

Hi All, just a little update on repairing PLYWOOD. My friend/mechanic Art found a very nice set of 1949 Plymouth, front/back bumpers; which we are going to put on PLYWOOD. I also have a nicer pair of driver taillights to put on it and I have been holding onto an original, still in their NOS boxes, Blue Dot Lynx Lenses, which we'll be installing. I am also installing a NOS, still in it's oil paper box, trunk handle. lastly, we'll also be using the very nice rear fender stainless gravel guards from the donor car.
