Looks like a fine project car.... will need at least $15k put into the car (engine rebuild, transmission rebuild, frame off, restore).

Marco dads car is dated off the frame number as it has been entirely restored down to the bare frame.

Here's a picture pre-restoration
The frame number IS the (original) engine number. That means the number represents when the engine was completed at the Rouge. Then it had to be shipped, warehoused, and eventually installed in a chassis, and only then was the number copied (stamped) to the frame.

Everything I said in my previous post applies here.

Thanks to all who responded. I learned a lot. I live in Illinois and there was no easy or economic way to ship the vehicle from Carson City Nevada, I was getting bids around 1300.00 to 1400.00. I will be joining the Victoria Association and checking in with you all at The Ford Barn.
