LOOK WHAT I FOUND (STOLE IT I THINK}

$600?! Heck yeah, that's a steal. I thought $800 for our '62 Comet was and all it needed was a fuel pump. I love the tail lights on yours though!
Do you plan to keep the straight six in it or turn it into a hot rod with a V8?

As for your gas tank, that puddy might work fine or maybe use some epoxy. You could always take it out and have those spots welded up though.

That's a terrific deal on that car. How very cool. Now please tell us you're going to begin stuffing a 540 monster block in there and do something radical. But even stock it's extremely cool.
