What to look for on an F35

Gents
There's an F35 for sale
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/OLDSMOBIL...item51a2bd59c8

..as a restorer for $4,200. I think that's a bit OTT for restorer in the current economic climate, but this email isn't about the money side.

Question 1 Anyone know how many parts (and panels) off this would be interchangeable with my F37 ? If the chassis is rusted beyond repair I'm thinking of it as a potential parts car if there is plenty of interchangeability

Question 2 Other than general "75 year old car" concerns is there anything specific / important to check out?

Lots of GM car parts interchange between brands, models and years but you need a Hollanders Interchange Manual to find out which ones interchange. Try Hollanders on a search engine to locate the company and get contact information. When I built my 36 Chevy Master I bought a Hollanders and it was a great investment. I believe the 16th Edition covers your years.
