| I told him I would take it off his hands and all he had to do was help me fix the slight air conditioning issue it has at the moment. I think deep down he truely is not ready to let go...  | |

| Well, I'm taking care of the tweaker inspired AC. Beyond that the body is pretty straight, a few dings here and there, nothing major. Front and rear aprons have never been hit, so they're in good shape. Has some rust under the battery, but no rust anywhere else. All of the original sound insulation is there. Wiring is intact and probably works, but I would go through it anyway. No motor, needs brakes. PO sez the tranny is good(?). It would make an easy,way-cool ratrod, or with some more time and money it could be a nice driver. |

| What about glass? Where does one get glass for a chop?  | |

| It has a windshield and door windows. (Door glass fits funny because it hasn't been cut) Rear 1/4s and back glass are Lexan. |

| So the Redding chop is a '56 body on a '69 IRS pan. The fenders, deck lid, and we'll call it a 'bonnet' are NOT pre '57. I am not entirely sure I know exactly what that means... No motor or trans. No glass. I have more pics of it if anyone is interested. But it is an oval... | |

| I think that means that even as parts, it ain't worth the price. |
