It's not green.
I'm guessing the body might be going in a skip.

this build is on hold for now stripped and cleaned shassis  and its fooked  Sad alot of corrosion repairs need and whilst measuring up for body  somethings just didnt add up  Huh  then a couple of front lower wishbone mounts that bolt through the chassis had been welded /stitched down the sides on measuring agian , it turns out the car has had a bad shunt and an even worse repair the chassis is out of line and twisted
time to look for another chassis at a good price (cheap as this was going to be a low budget build)

so its on the ,back burner, for now

also i,m trying to get things ready for the 57 ,gasser, to come home ..
