Great parts hall!

Went out to see Jim again in Niceville, FL. (JATA on here)
It was about 9.5 hours round trip and definitely worth it.
Such a good guy with a great collection of parts. If he has it, it will be in great shape and his prices are VERY fair.
So, If you’re able to make the trip and you need nice ‘65 parts, DO IT! (Don’t think he’s interested in shipping)
I’d even stay overnight if it was further.

This will definitely speed up my 442 convertible and club coupe project.

To me Getting some good parts is just as exciting as getting another car or completeing a project on the car

I stared at that work for a few minutes….still didn’t get it right.

Roger that. Also, Action PARK is the name of the infamous New Jersey attraction.

Did the parts haul include that 4 door on the trailer? I hope you don't cut it up, I remember that car it's a nice one.

Koda, I remember the Action Park commercials from growing up in NY. Place looked terrifying!

Slantflat…Do you really want to know the answer to that question?
I would entertain offers…but this thing has been for sale for over a year and no one wanted it…and for a great price.

If anyone needs 4 door specific parts, I’d practically give them away.

I didn't know it was for sale. I remember when it was for sale in Arizona and I tried to buy it, but someone beat me to it. I assumed it was Jim but then I never saw it again. It's your car do with it what you want, my feeling is it's a shame to cut up a car that nice that would run in a weekend. If I remember right it only needed a couple push rods.
