Looks like the roof has been flattened a bit, too.

Yes it has. Most of the car is pretty solid but a few places are pretty bad.

Doesn't look too hopeless if you know what to do. Check out this thread on the HAMB:

Keep V-8ing and 4-banging!

I agree, but it is amazing what some good metal work can do to bring a car back.

Yes this car would look real good with some metal work and a few other things. I just hope I can save it from what is going to happen if I don't. These people don't care about the cars.

I could not tell what the sedans were I could not get a real good look at the fronts. I do know the one on the other side is a shoe box.

Found a guy that has gotten some old tractors from the old guy. He said if I had to that he would take the cash and buy the car for me. Can anyone tell what the first sedan in the picture is? I could not tell from where I took the picture.

I wish there was still stuff like that here on the east coast, nothing but piles of rust for us to pick over!

Tons here had a customer come into my office today and told me his cousin has some old cars on the back of his place. He said he called them ford coupes. He is going to set up a time for me to look at them.

I first thought it looked like a '35 or '36 slantback, but it has a straight bumper. Maybe a '37?

I looked on the pic and blew it up and it looks to have a split rear window.
