I drove the Starliner to where you see it sitting in the pictures a little over a year ago to have the rust cut out and metal put back, no fiberglass or bondo as a "fix'. The body man custom made the replacement panels since you cant buy a lot of Starliner body parts. i did find new rocker panels and they are on the car. i took the car back home because the body man quit working on the car (divorce). i dont think the right side rocker panel is completely welded in, he started at the back and was working his way forward when he stopped.The work that has been done is nice.
I bought a 4 door galaxie out of alabama that had a rust free front clip and was driveable.
I swapped the front clip and the 352 since the one in the starliner was locked up. the car has good brakes, a new clutch/pressure plate/throwout bearing, and a new radiator ($500, radiators are a little pricy).
i also found a right door with a decent skin and a deck lid that is in good shape.
The car is close to being ready for filler and finish work, a lot closer than it was when i got it.the floor pans can be patched, its not like the flintstones car.
i have all the stainless and it is in good shape.

i will consider trades, i like 61 to 66 T-Birds it needs to be drivable.
i can re-assemble it also if you dont want to haul it away in pieces.
