Picking up the new project.
 

Bought this yesterday to save it from the scrap yard. Now I got to figure where to put it and what to do with it.

Looks like a good start, is it pretty solid? Drivetrain? I've definitely started a project with a lot less than that. Hope you get it going.

That is a real good start! Are the floors solid ? The rest looks good ! Have the pesky mice left it alone? Running gear intact ? Show us more when you can. I really like these cars and were what was around when I was in High School ! Best of luck with it !!

Good for you. Can't believe someone would send something like that to the scrapyard, but then again, everyone is different!

If you really can't decide what to do, send me your address and I'll be by next week to pick it up. I have room and a soft spot in my head for '46 coupes!

Looks like you get to enjoy finishing someone else's project. Not much trim missing. There's still some OE radio's out there. Stock engine ? Will be a great save. Thanks for caring !

46's have the nicest stainless trim of all the post war fat fendered Fords.
That coupe is an easy project.
Keep it original.

It has all the trim in the trunk and stock motor that he said ran last years.
