Here is how I'd do it. Find a very nicely restored 4 door 36. They are the least expensive of body styles. Add that cost to what you can get the 3 window for. Then see if you can buy an already restored 3 window for the total plus a new 3 window interior and paint/body work required on the 3 window cab and rear fenders.. I'd then buy the 4 door and put the 3 window body on it. I'm betting this would be the cheapest way to restore the 3 window. I'm also betting you would be under water.

Maybe I'm a pessimist, but I don't see enough there to warrant hiring an appraiser for. Looks like a whole lot of horse pucky to me.

Several suggestions: Hire an antique car appraiser to do a conmplete apprasial, Get a knowlegable club member to look at it, and get a copy of the old car value guide or similar publication at a bookstrore or news stand. Be prepared to spend more money on restoration than it will sell for when completed.

I may have the opportunity to buy a 36 3 window coupe from a friend. You may have seen it in the V8 Time mag. "Their Still Out There." No engine, solid frame, unmolested body. I really have no idea what it's worth. The potential is there for a total restoration. Any suggestions? Thanks, Lenny
