Welcome to the forum. Looks like you have a nice project and some decent work ahead of you. You said there was no engine or tranny, what are your plans? How much do you know about body work? Can you post up a picture of the trim tag, its located inside the engine bay on the firewall behind the power brake stuff. What alse do you know about the car?
