cheap 57 Fairlane 2dr HT project in Montana yard sale

[djfordmanjack]

not associated to the seller. Just found by coincidence. looks interesting. It has to be assumed that the hood is rusted out after quite some time upside down, but many areas of the car look promising, like lower fender quarters. Seems to have been a cool Kustom at one time with flake door panels and mink dash liner. Maybe interesting for someone in the area. $2000

DJ, I thought I knew where most of these old car stashes are here in Mt. but I have never seen this one. I am going to try and find the location. It looks like a lot of over priced junk.  But there could be a diamond hiding in there. Thanks for sharing.

I followed that link and searched his site.  He has a 58 (looks like a 2 door, but listed as a 4 door) parts car.  Does anyone know if the dog legs and windshield frame would work on my 57 Ranchero?

To me that looks like a 59.  Where are you located?  I may be able to come up with a pair of "A" pillars as I know of a 2 dr in a yard.

I am in Hawaii, so it makes searching for these parts very difficult.  I would be happy to work out shipping and compensation for your time.  I?ll PM you with some photos of the area that I need.  Thanks!

Maybe the yard isn't too far from your place, Alvin. Always worth checking when local. you never know what's not listed in the auction and oftentimes cars are left after auction and may be had very cheap. Good luck ! Guenter
