Thanks! Saw car when I went and bought a 62 from same owner and knew I had to get. Has some fender rust and lower quarter rust but not bad at all. Floors and trunk like brand new and honestly has best hood and deck lid I've ever seen on a 63. Zero scale or anything on their lips.

Another car saved...personally I like the pictures of the car as found, actually sitting in the barn, tarps and covers , boxes or dust and dirt..that is the true barn find shot..
 
Yeah after pulled out thought about how should have taken before shots. Was covered by a car cover and a bunch of large dusty sheets of cardboard.
 
Please tell us your plan,, short term or long. Gonna stay a Slant ?
 
Keeping the slant :) short term go through and check everything out so can make roadworthy. Long term not sure. Car is amazingly solid.
