Introduction and What Do I have Here?

[dbstovall]

I got a pic of the frame number. It matches the title. I do have the red gauges and the front grille pieces look correct. I will check on the tool tray and bumper filler.


I am pretty sure this was a frame-off restoration as the bottom is extremely clean (I looked at it on a lift). Is it possible someone put a 46 body on a 47 frame? Or is this just a late 46 that got a 47 number. From what I have read it sure seems possible. In any case I am going to to to the MD MVA and just keep my mouth shut. If they insist on titling it as a 47 I can't see any issues. Usually MD does not demand to see the car to confirm.
