Found 1953 coupe

[mike super]

No longer need a coupe body to put on a Morrison Chassis. I was fortunate to find this sweet 1953 Coupe sporting a newly completed redo of a Big Block 454 mated with a new 700R4 transmission pushing a 9 inch Ford. I can go on and on but the pictures give you a real good idea of what we are to starting with. Has Slick Street Stuff IFS....Vintage Air and on and on. The body has final paint cut in done in Viper Red......will see about the color. she has been primed and blocked once and primed again. Another bloc and primer or two and we will give her hell....

Congradulations. I can't wait for you to post pictures of the dismantling. Keep us posted

Not much to dismantle ...... Just a few things to address before we paint her, treating her to a full leather interior. Joe Depeppi, the original did all the work here. It was a labor of love for him. I am honored to finish what he started !!

No Morrison chassis happening then?

What's the tank on the firewall?
