I agree with Walt.

Depending on how many of them there are, and how much room you have, GET EM.

As far as the rust, is there ANYWHERE on the vehicle that shows the original paint, or paint of any kind. I am not an expert on rusted-out body restoring, but I went to Visalia with my Dad a few years ago and there was a guy who was selling Fords of the same years. These cars were so rusted you could push your finger through the body anywhere you wanted. These cars are pretty much dead.

I wonder what rust converter would do???

Anyway my Dad has brought back some rusty cars over the years and they turn out beautiful. While not "FordMuscle" per se, they ran pretty good in their day. He currently has:

1908 Ford S 2cyl
1909 REO Touring "2cyl under the seat!"
1910 Ford T 4cyl Show Condition
1913 Oakland Touring
1932 Ford 5 Window Coupe
1932 Ford B Woody Wagon

All these cars had rust to some extent but not nearly as bad as the cars in Visalia.

PS- Bargain Hunters, he paid $250 for the complete Duece Woody...

Sorry, I meant this to be a response to Cyclone Joe's post about vintage tin. Accidentally clicked new post I guess.
