    Number 2 doesn't seem too bad. And in use as a driver, which is promising. I would really wonder about the frame on the first one.

    Got to look over t-top cars really well, especially if they come from a northern state. They leak and rust from the inside out, and it hides!

    If you can, look for a car from a dry state.

    Here's a rough but solid one here in Texas. http://houston.craigslist.org/cto/3344643544.html

    I wanted a lightning rod shifter for my wagon...until I saw the prices! :49:Holy Cow, are they expensive!!!

    That Hurst Olds is a diamond in the rough...


    Back to the OP: I'd probably take door #2 and ditch the rims...AFTER crawling all over it to make sure it isn't rotten from leaky T-tops!
