Another ‘66 4-4-2 Post Coupe

I found this car in a backyard where it had been for over 30 years! It was about to be cut up and scrapped. It is a 4-speed bench seat car.

Following. What's the long term plan? Will it be a resto, a restomod or somewhere in between?

I’m mainly focused on getting it cleaned first before anything. 1 more day of cleaning and I can get after it.

Let me know if you need one. The fellow who bought my convertible didn't want it. It was working fine when pulled, but I wanted the 3rd gear and had a 3 speed turbo built for it.
The old 2 speed has just been setting out in the shop.

Pretty clean undercarriage for its age. Old Georgia clay is a lifesaver. That car will come together nicely. If you aren’t using the white headliner I can use it..
