Snagged some parts today!

[Mr.Gussett]

Hey guys,I snagged some parts today for my "next" project!
I was at a car show a few weeks ago and I was talking to a guy there who had a 30 coupe. I ask him if he new where I could find a windshield frame for my 29 tudor."Sure...I have two I think" he said.
Well he brought the two down to me thursday and I bouhgt one of them from him ($40.)NOT a 29 ford frame but I was able to cut and weld it to fit.
He said that he has a pile of stuff he was going to put on e-bay and ask if I wanted to see it.SURE! I said!
Well, after church this morning the wife and kids and I went to his house (about 30 min. from home) and I bought a set of front fenders,one rear fender,a pair of running boards and a complete hood for a 28-29 Ford all for $370. All of the stuff has NO rust on them.They have a few dings but..............He also GAVE me 4 old original wood spoked wheels(I'll find something to do with them)!Just wanted to tell ya all the good news and if anyone knows of a 30 -32 truck CAB I am interested!

Way to go, the best deals are when the buyer, and seller walk away happy. One day you will use at least one of those parts and pay for all of them.

Sounds like you got a good deal on those parts Mr Gussett. I'm guessing that your "next" project is going to have fenders.
