I have my reasons but I have made my choice and it is time for this one to find a new home.  

1958 Panhard Dyna Z.  Clean IL title in my name.  NO Drivetrain.  JUST THE BODY/Interior/trim/glass

Relatively complete interior/body with what seems to be all trim and bumpers present. 

I may have lost or never had all of the headlight trim.

 

Has all Glass. All glass except windshield is in good shape.  Windshield has several chips and a vertical crack.  Rear window is good.  Windshield and rear window are removed from car as the seals were SHOT.  

Body is relatively solid but floor is basically gone.   These were unibody cars and have a basically completely flat floor at the bottom of some large boxed sills.   The sills need attention but all of the metal above the flat bottom of the sill is "okay".

Front and rear windows are packed in shaped transportation "boxes".  

I've decided to move on so I want it gone.  I don't really want to sit on it.  I want it out of the garage.  This weekend it will end up under a tarp on my trailer.  Please someone come get it. 

 

Price:  I would really like to trade it for a rough Manx clone Buggy body.  I want a classic style body, no t-bucket or other wierd half truck ones.  Just a classic Manx clone.  Ideally with hood.  It can have cracks, or damage, mounts can be all messed up.   The one from the 2023 failed PLB would be PERFECT.   

IF you are interested in the Panhard and have a Manx clone body that you think "There is no way he will want this" I might. 

IF you are intrested in the Panhard and don't have a Manx clone body, but you live within 6-8 hours of Central IL, and find one on FBM that you think "That dollar amount is a dollar amount I would give for that Panhard and also ~$200" I will bring the Panhard to your house in exchange for that Manx clone body.  

IF you are interested in the Panhard body and don't have a Manx clone body but think "I want to turn that into a Drag and drive car" or "I want to turn that into a LeMons car" or "I want to turn that into a Challenge car" I am very flexible, Like I would accept 2 gallons of (non-expired) Bondo Fiberglass resin and some Chopped strand mat.   

I'd just initially like to try to get a Manx clone out of it, and I want it to leave soon, so leaving soon may win over Manx Clone.

Good luck with the sale, fingers crossed that someone has a Manx clone body and dreams of a Panhard build.

 

Reading through your post, this is indeed the right move.

Bump for dayshift.  I'd say price reduced but...

What if I have a Manx clone project, but really don't want a 1958 Panhard Dyna Z?

If it's cheap I'm listening...  If I wind up with one for cheap the Panhard becomes $Free.99

"Cheap" is tough to define.
This is a pre-Acme Berrien Nostalgia body that has never been driven on a rolling shortened Bug pan with a 1776 and 4 speed.   Just looked at your build thread, and I am guessing it isn't the droid you are looking for.

Yeah that sounds too nice.   I'm going to hack it up and stretch it over a Miata..

Where did that one from the challenge 2 years ago end up?  Does Dusterbd have it?  Or was he the person that brought it?

Patrick Brought it.  Singleslammer and I Owned it for about 4 hours, Duster bought it, and then I don't think he owned it after the challenge.  He did not bring it home..  that one would be perfect but I suspect wherever it is it's to far away from me to make sense.

I just texted him.  He said Kurt got it.  Does that help track it down?

I realized it was something like that after Sleepyhead clued me in and I checked the thread.   
I'll keep my eyes peeled in case I come across what you are looking for in my travels.

Look at the value I am offering!

To be fair that is an earlier Aluminum car.  They are about 200lbs lighter and actually borderline desirable.   Sort of.

Unfortunately my barns are full. But I may be able to help enable, depending on my schedule. 
 

edit to say that I do have room behind a barn for a dune buggy body to sit for awhile if need be.

I'll reach out if I need the assist.  I believe I have secured a Manx body.   So the Panhard is now free to loving home.  Or at least home with a vague dream that won't crush it for a little while.

I do believe this has found a home.  And in a unrelated transaction I am getting this. .

No hood but I doubt I could use the hood anyway.

Panhard's wheelbase is similar to a Jeep's if that helps. 

 

Edit:  These also have a 101.2 wheelbase.
