well I decieded to buy another pontiac , a 1953 pontiac pathfinder

model 20-69

serial # 3206933958

trim 513, paint 352

its got a chev engine in it, not the flathead six that runs, will take it in hopefully tomorrow and see what it needs, first is a rub down and a tremclad paint job to get it through the summer, needs the seats recovered . It has vintage et slots on it with radial tires, and what looks like a new exhaust and gas tank, I think I done well for $1500.
