Retired Wrencher 5,459 #1 Posted August 11, 2023 I pick this up a few weeks ago. A 1056. This was mistreated in its later years. The hood was so dented and bang up from miss use It could not be mounted normally. So this is the end result. The p/o thought by lifting up and bending the steering wheel was the right way to open the hood I guess. Hope you enjoy the picks! 4 1 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ri702bill 8,326 #11 Posted August 12, 2023 @peter lena - sad, but all to true. I see that with old cars when the owner dies. Sorry, but a 1950 Chevy, 4 door 6 cylinder with a 2 speed automatic that has not run in 30+ years and is rotted up past the bumpers is NOT a treasure. It deserves to be scrapped, not sold to finance the deceased funeral............. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
