What color is the sky in his world?

Not a 71-73, but I just had to share. This one should look good with just a quick scuff and paint....

Invisibility cloak?

Looks like a blank canvass to me, flawless.

Can't see a link from here...

A couple of logs and you got a perfectly good Flintstone car ! rofl

 

[JimNiki]

Not too bad ... Can't see much rust in the floor pans...!

 

[nailpounder]

the top seems to work just fine

 

[Boss1Ray]

I don't see it, and I don't get it!

Where is the value in this? I've heard of low riders and how they sit down in the weeds but this one has run aground like a beached whale!

He's practically admitting in his description that he's selling it so someone can convert a hardtop - AND illegally swap the VIN's:

Would make a good donor for you coupe. MAKE your coupe into a convertible using this donor body and tags. I have VIN tag also that makes this car legal. Clear Missouri title.

You can't be any more B&W than that.

Thing is, someone who is seeking to circumvent the system can legally get away with a VIN swap onto a Dynacorn body - under the premise that the original unibody was in such rough shape that it required the significant replacement of structural components. Namely everything.

Some states would accept this - even if the builder went ahead and fully disclosed his/her actions. Someone might transfer some meaningless body panels from this one just to make it an air-tight case too. It's a grey area depending on the laws of a given state.

Funny how he forgot the shock towers though. I take it the shyster is including a set of Ford shock tower VIN stamping dies too, so someone can press out whatever VIN they want, eh?

I want what he is smoking...

 

[Kit Sullivan]

You know, it is perfectly legal to switch...

Oh, never mind.

I think the answer is "sky is turquoise" and he states "needs total restore" . Dynacorn would be an upgrade on this car. Guy is straightforward if nothing else.

 

[rpmcarter]

Guys ..... I'm disappointed nobody has noted this "IS" a "ground up restoration"!!!!!!

 

[JimNiki]

Someone can buy that and make a nice spa out of it? All the controls are there...

Shame on you for taking this thing that has nothing going for it - and using it to develop the most brilliant Mustang-related product since the '71 Mustang itself.

All I can say is "WTF?"

 

[mweeps]

Obviously Green like the color of money!

 

[Kit Sullivan]

Probably not such an outrageous proposal, considering what a nicely restored 65/66 convertible is worth.

Certainly nothing an ametuer could tackle in his garage, but a well-equipped body shop could probably turn out a nice car and make some profit along the way.
