Got Body?

Yesterday, I finally got a body.

I don't know the brand. It's a '27 Ford roadster like the Speedway body, except black.
It hasn't been used, but has been kicking around for some time. It looks like someone laid up a layer of glass cloth into the interior door areas, but didn't get it properly wetted out. There is no roughness under this cloth suggesting someone did a lot of sanding because there are areas where a chopper gun was used.
The body is cracked just behind the seat. The seller said he thinks kids may have jumped on it prior to him getting it.

I have to cut the body into quarters to widen and lengthen it to fit my frame, so the cracks are of no mind to me.

I paid six hundred for it and have no complaints.

A picture might have been in order until I remembered my wife took my camera for an outing she had planned for today. And besides, ya seen one, ya seen'em all.
