Good find, devil dog! Get the mechanicals reliable and drive 'er just like that. You'll find answers to just about any question you might have. Enjoy!

Nice car! You will be the coolest Gunny on base. Even better than the officers with fancy sports cars

Man, I love 'em in that condition. I agree with Newshirt. I wish I could find one locally. Any body style, really, but the Sports Coupes are special! Good on you.

There is a lot of potential there! Good find,

What a great way to start. A lot more car than I started with.

Great find and thank you for your service.

Thanks all for the comments. My apologies in advance for the knuckle-headed questions I'll be asking...remember, I'm a Marine, so use small words...lol.

For al's28/33: I haven't torn it down enough to look for numbers, but there is a suspiciously crisp date stamp on the firewall - 8/29/28. Engine serial falls in Aug 1930.
