Hello all,

Yesterday I brought home my 5th Forward look. Its a 1958 Coronet 4 door sedan. I knew off the bat this car did not have a title, and that the original 325 Poly was no good. (threw a rod but i think it can be saved)

This car is very unusual. Originally a XXX triple Eggshell white car, with Factory A/C, and power steering, jiffy jet washer, 325 Poly but it has the Powerflight trans.  Its a clock and radio delete car. 

I traded the car for a 64 Comet I had, that I had done some trading around for. I dont have a whole lot in this 58.. so there is that.

After pulling the carpet out, the front floors and trunk are pretty gone. I know this isnt bad for some of the salt areas up north..

My dilema: i have too many irons in the fire, and this car will either be for parts, or I would be more than happy to sell as one car. Would its oddness intrigue someone enough to redo it?

Here are some pics:

On the Trailer:

( one drum was seized) This pic you can see the outside of the car is pretty rust free...

Another odd part, this car has the "cartemp" AC. It is factory air, just odd its not Airtemp.

wait why did you trade for it? Just to cut it up? Or did you need specific parts off the car? or just to get rid of thel 64 comet. I don't price an AC system at 1800$. I guess its just who you know. If you bought it just to cut it up, it probably worth 2000$ in parts. You might make a little parting it out but thats alot of time/shipping/effort. front end bumpers/fenders/hood, ac, power steering, some interior are the big parts That is almost a car to save, put some quick floors in it, swap the engine get it running and sell for 2k. But you need a title. Thats not cheap I guess? File for a lost title maybe. Does it have a vin tag?
