Looking for a SV shell

[Beamin]

Just got my "rust free" car back from the media blasters. Oh boy... I don't have much original metal left to work with. I'm trying to make a decision as to whether to push forward or cut my losses. I was wondering if anyone out there has a SV shell in decent condition. I don't need anything else to go with it. I've got doors, hood, trunk, power train, glass, electronics, and all the other bits and pieces (in many cases three times over...). I live in Billings, MT, but can travel a fair amount for something truly decent.

I feel your pain. I ended up buying two rollers for sheet metal after I got my SI car back from the blaster. I know of a late series roller here in Boise that may be available. I’ll let you know.

I have a SV that has a good body (rolling) $2000. Only problem I see for Beamin is the distance.

Yeah...S. Carolina could be a bit further than I'm willing to travel. Thanks, though. Boise on the other hand is doable. I'm still on the fence on which way to go on this project. I only got it back from the blasters yesterday, so I haven't had a chance to do a full blown assessment and total everything up. On first glance, there are a couple areas on the frame the are worrisome. Once I cut away what's left of the floor pans and can get a close look at what is underneath, I will have a better feel for which way to go on this one.

There were two alpines for sale in Green Bay WI on facebook. Not sure if they were SIV or SV. Still a long haul....

The condition of the metal would/could make more than the difference in transport
