I'm looking at purchasing a 52 Club Coupe and was wondering, are there many parts sources for this year. The car needs much work, mostly sheetmetal, (floors, rockers) and interior.

Thanks,

Ralph

Ralph, the '52 to '54 cars are very similar with respect to sheet metal, the stainless trim is different (with the exception of a few pieces on the '52 & '53). Floor sections and patch panels are available. Use the Google, you’ll find a bunch of stuff.

Have fun

One source is to put an ad here for what you need in classified wanted. If you need a nice '52 grille I have one listed here w/pictures

You could also put a parts wanted ad on the EFV8C/A website, in Hemmings Motor News, and several other places.
Go for it....you will find what you need.

Thanks all, I've been looking at this one for awhile. it's pretty complete, but missing a front windshield. May come with a 4 door parts car that has a chipped front windshield.
Quite a project, but hey, who doesn't need another project!
