Blackys old tin mini adventure

[Blacky]

I was driving home the other day and went past a farm with some old wrecks so I stopped in and introduced myself and took some photos - no FB/EKs unfortunately.....
All of these were rusted beyond redemption unfortunately ..................
'46 ish Desoto

This however looked quite repairable but still a big job ..................









And heres the kicker - check out the body tag

[Devilrod]

now that's a find! Could be worth the effort being such an early one.
