I see lots of area-correct body rust - how is the rest of the 'Runner? Two of my favorite cars I've never owned. Contemplating...not sure I have the time (or desire) to do a project car. Any pics of some finished work of yours? That orange has me tempted...

James,
The Wyeth 37 Ford Woody is very nice, however I think you would agree that this 1940 Packard 1803 is nothing to sneeze at!
Another REAL wood Beauty! Send it over here. I'll take it.

Well, another lost puppy found his way to our home today.
I hope you are good with body work.
Another reason I live out here. Cars that old never look that bad.

Yeah, I remember growing up in PA and that was "normal". Road salt, etc. Being in Cali, we're spoiled on the lack of rustI hope you are good with body work. Another reason I live out here. Cars that old never look that bad.

Normal? That is giving me a heart attack just looking at it.

James,
The only problem with sending the Packard woody out to you, is that we will no longer have a "grocery getter" for our beach cottage (Behind the car.) next summer!

The interior is good, minus front seats and carpet. Easy fix.
Floor pans in the front need replaced, and some minor trunk work near the fenders. Other than that, pretty good. We've already got the patch panels on order, it'll be all new metal before you know it.
I don't have any pics of finished. We usually get them running good and get the big stuff done and pass them on. The only one we really finished was our '31 Model A hot rod. I'll see if I can dig some pics up of that.
Also, she's not orange, but actually red.
I'm just learning the body work, but luckily Dad knows.
I'll take rusty cars over an abundance of hippies.

You are indeed lucky then. That would cost a fortune to fix out here.
I keep sending containers full. You'll have plenty soon.
