I'll keep you guys informed if I find anything old chevy and give you first choice before ebay.

Yesterday since I couldn't go to his house to work I took the old rusty license plate I found and repainted it.  Not perfect but cool.

Guess we didn't get first choice:

To the gentlemen who suggested that I keep it original, I wouldn't consider that a "fuddy-duddy" response.  I think that's a legitimate option especially since it's never been hot rodded in it's 81 years of existence.  Hot rod or original these are beautiful cars.

This next part probably goes in the "tmi" (too much information) category.  My wife isn't thrilled about me looking at another old car.  Throughout our married life I've tinkered with old cars (chevy's and mustangs).  It's seems like she would be used to it by now.  A couple months ago I got rid of a 66 Fastback Mustang on ebay.  That did excite her!  The possibility that I would replace it is horrible.(in her mind)  So I'm trying to be creative and think of a way to get the car but not impose on her desire for a clean driveway.  I only have a two car garage.

I guess he couldn't convince his wife he should keep it

He told me yesterday, while I was fixing the brakes in his daily driver, that he would rather I have the car than anyone else.  But I don't know if that affects the price.  Thanks again for the advice and listening to my story.
