So a little over a year ago, I went and scoped out this guy:
https://hondaswap.com/auto-multi-media/fuck-hondas-i-got-49-chebby-80300/
and yesterday I went and picked it up.
It was grown up quite a bit since I went down there last year, it's been raining a lot. It was sunk down to the axles, all 4 tires were flat and wouldn't hold air, and all 4 wheels were locked. I disconnected the E-brake and removed the rear axles, and still couldn't get it to budge...
so we got a fuckin' tractor, picked the motherfucker up, and drug it out of its grave. Since all 4 wheels were locked up, and we wouldn't be able to push it onto the trailer, we picked the ass end up with the tractor, backed the trailer under it, and then pushed it the rest of the way onto the trailer with the tractor.
So after a 16-hour day of driving and getting dirty, it's back at my parent's house under a car cover. Next weekend I should be taking it to a friend of mine's shop, pulling the cab, stripping it, and media blasting the cab, grille, and hood. I think I'm going to trash the front and rear fenders that it currently has, and try to find new ones offline.
If anyone knows of a good site to buy classic car body panels, let me know.
