Fantastic story. It sounds like he actually got a complete car without all the metal being rusted away. I was not so fortunate with my 36, as the bottom 6 inches were rusted away. The frame was rusted in two and the engine and transmission were so rusty that they were just junk. I think my 36 must have been used as a bulkhead in a stream. After 10 years it came out just fine.
