ALSO ONE HORN HAS DATE 4/1953 STAMPED IN IT.CAR WAS ORIGINALLY BLUE AND A LOT OF THAT BLUE IS PRESENT.THERE IS NO TITLE- JUST A BILL OF SALE WITH THIS CAR.SOME YEARS BACK SOMEONE PUT A CHEVY V/8 ENGINE AND A BIG CHEVY REAR END INTO THE CAR! THEY CUT OFF THE ORIGINAL MOUNTS AND DID SOME OTHER CUTTING AND FABRICATING TO MAKE THEIR CAR INTO WHAT THEY WANTED. ALL OF THIS CHANGE CAN BE FOUND IN THE PICTURES SO LOOK AND DECIDE IF THIS PROJECT IS FOR YOU. BRITISH CAR SPECIALISTS IN STOCKTON CALIFORNIA HAVE THE REPLACEMENT ENGINE MOUNTS FOR THE FRAME IN STOCK AT 94$ EACH. BUT THERE WILL BE SOME OTHER WORK NEEDED TO MAKE THE FRAME ORIGINAL AGAIN. A LOT OF SKILL AND PATIENCE WILL BE REQUIRED.FRAME IS RUSTY IN PLACES TOO. SO LOOK AT PICTURES CLOSELY.THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS GOING TO RESTORE IT AND LOCATED A NUMBER OF ORIGINAL PARTS. ALL OF THAT IS INCLUDED AND CAN BE SEEN IN THE PICTURES. WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET. ENGINE IS IN PIECES BUT A LOT IS THERE. THERE ARE ALSO A LOT OF MISSING PARTS SO BID ACCORDINGLY.ENGINE, -SPEED TRANS AND O.D. WILL NEED TO BE REBUILT.SOME PARTS MAY HAVE BEEN PICTURED TWICE.A 100-6 REAR END IS INCLUDED ALONG WITH SOME NEW WIRE WHEEL HUBS, UT THE CONDITION AND FIT OF THIS PART IS UNKNOWN.THE BODY HAD BEEN ASSEMBLED TO SEE HOW EVERYTHING LINED UP AND IT LINES UP FAIRLY WELL BUT MUCH MORE WORK WILL BE NEEDED.SEE THE CLOSE-UP PICTURES OF THE DOORS AND CHECK THE GAPS, HE RIGHT DOOR CLOSES TIGHT. THE DRIVERS DOOR IS MISSING THE LATCH. HOOD IS JUST RESTING IN PLACE. MANY BOLTS ARE MISSING.THE DASH IS NOT CORRECT. WIPER MOTOR AND HEATER STILL THERERIGHT FENDER IS FROM A 100-6, OOD AND TRUNK ARE ALUMINUM.CAR ROLLS EASILY AND STEERS BUT THE STEERING IS TIGHT.ONE FOOT MISSING FROMWINDSHIELDBUT THE HARD TO FIND PARTS ARE THERE, LASS WAS BROKEN AND WAS REMOVED FROM THE FRAME. FRAME AND SIDES ARE DECENT, TANCIONS NOT BOLTED DOWNI MAY HAVE MISSED SOMETHING BUT WANT TO BE FAIR AND HONEST.I RECOMMEND YOU COME AND LOOK AND/OR I CAN SEND YOU MORE PICTURES OF ANYTHING YOU WANT TO SEE BETTER, LEASE LET ME KNOW AS I WANT TO KEEP MY GOOD FEEDBACK. I CAN BE REACHED AT 970 259 3300 DANS SPORTS CAR EVERY PART OF THIS CAR WILL NEED TO BE REBUILT AND/OR RESTORED - THIS WILL BE A MAJOR UNDERTAKING!THE RESERVE IS REASONABLE. FREE LOCAL PICK-UP - DURANGO, OLORADO OR I WOULD TAKE THE CAR TO A LOCATION 30 MILES NORTH OF PHOENIX FOR AN EXTRA $250. THIS IS MY COST AND I DO IT AS A FAVOR BUT YOU MUST WORK WITH ME ON THE TIME FRAME FOR THIS DELIVERY AS BLACK CANYON CITY IS JUST MY SECOND HOME AND I STILL WORK FULL TIME IN DURANGO. I AM PLANNING A TRIP TO ARIZONA THURSDAY OF NEXT WEEK AND COULD BRING IT IF YOU CONTACT ME SOON ENOUGH. I WILL BE GONE FOR 10 DAYS SO YOU WOULD HAVE TO WAIT TILL AFTER THAT TO PICK THE CAR UP IN DURANGO. PLEASE STAY IN TOUCH AND I WILL WORK WITH YOU. 500$ PAYPAL AFTER THE BIDDING ENDS AND THE BALANCE BY BANK WIRE TRANSFER BEFORE YOU PICK IT UP.
