The engine in it is from a '59 and it surprisingly runs quite strong. I suspect it will at least need some minor
rebuilding. I haven't checked the compression yet. It runs as well as my '64 which is in need of a rebuild also. It
even drives pretty well (straight) even though the front axle is bent back about and inch on the drive side.
I think I'll pass on the sawzall and knobby tires for now. Besides, a large part of the ramva crowd would have me
castrated.
