Talking Great find NOS!

Located a 69 NOS quarter panel for my car. As many of you know these are not easy to find especially at a decent price!

What about the rest of the rusty hulk? How did that re stamped 253 work out for you?

Mike-- in reading some threads on the forum I heard that most of the re stamping / bodying comes from some guy south of rt 40 and since my carb came from a reputable source in the west I wasn't so concerned---

As far as the rest of "the rusty hulk" goes just worry about getting the correct battery and hood insulation in that cinder block of yours

Love ya buddy

What's wrong with a Walmart battery? I'm going to use that foil type insulation they sell @ Home Depot.
