Hi all thought i would share some photos of my new project.
its a 65 xp sedan it was a one owner car untill the original owner past away and it just sat under a family members house for years untill they sold it to me.

what I like about it is it still has the original log book with service history.

it is missing motor/ trans, front and rear seats.

ill put up some photos of todays progress.

Good find Shelby. See there is hope out there. I have a spare rear door for a sedan if you are interested. Will have to see which side it is. No good for me as I have an XP coupe but I still collect parts if I spot them.

yeh sweet I will never say no to anything that will help me get this old girl on the road again.

I think from memory the rear drivers side is the worst but been all original paint it all needs to be striped back and done again for a better finnish.  the seall on the bottom needs to be replaced but other then that the panels are not bad.

Your lucky day. The door is a driver side rear. Straight , no rust good rubber seal and glass. Original pale green colour. I paid $50 so $50 and it's yours.
