Car description

I bought this a few years ago and had big plans to customize it. I stated on it by wanting to put suicide doors which are ready just need to put the suicide door kit. Most of the body has been done but without Bondo. I have a friend of mine fly in from Germany to do the body work which he is a metal beater and uses lead instead of Bondo. Still need some more body work but not much. I also started on back doors by removing the back original hinges. Some parts of the inside side panels have been cut to get to the dents. My German friend also doesn't believe in drilling holes into the body and using a dent puller. I have the parts which makes a complete vehicle. It has a clean title and I do have the pink slip (clear Callifornia title). I have put at least $8,000 into this project but I have another project I rather work on. Metal beaters are not cheap even its your friend. Not the same as most body shops who use Bondo. Bondo should not be used on any vehicle especially old vehicles. However I did strip all the old wiring since it was for 6v which I was going to put new wiring for 12v. Very nice project for someone who wants a clean Panel. I can provide more pictures if you are real interested. At the moment, he Panel is at body shop to get the doors done to install the suicide door kit but I put a hold on it. Don't want to put anymore money into it since I have another project I'm more interested which is another Panel. I like the 1955 better because of the hood and grill. I know I can put any grill and hood but it won't be original. Sounds crazy but I want to this project right since it's going to take a lot of money as many of you know what it takes to customized any old vehicle.Buyer responsible for shipping. I will add more pictures just need to drive to body shop. Just to be clear, have it at a body shop just so they can put the suicide door kit on. I added some more pics (8/26/15). I also have video showing how my German friend putting on lead on the front passenger fender after he cut and put on a new piece at the headlight. I included this pic on the listing. Also, t does't have a motor or transmission.Thanks for looking....
