Could use a rear clip of body to save a '69 roadster
Posted: Tue Oct 31, 2023 2:23 pm
Hi. I have a nice roller frame and body is a 9.5 except for:
- trunk floor pan
- mid wheelwell back to the rear on both qtrs
Best bet is a rear clip so that I can drill out the spot welds and replace panels essentially as was done originally (the right way to resurrect the car).
Anyway, If someone has a roadster with bad cowl pillars, bad floor, bad rockers but the rear clip is excellent, maybe we can figure out a way to get it out to MA where I live. I do have a transport guy that is pretty flexible for such things. This in not my current priority roadster project but I would be an additional part time body restoration, essentially back to new. For the other .5, I don't mind the little bit of patching but for the large sections this is the only way it should be done.
Some surface rust is ok, perforation is not, though a tiny bit I don't mind dealing with.
Let me know what you folks have. Thanks all, Jim
