Description

This car is going to sell. I am the broker for the car and a long time restorer and custom builder. I was asked to help out the family that owns this car. The owner is very ill and is in a nursing home. The car set for a year or so and last week I got it started and moved it from the garage for the first time in years. It has a cam of some sort and a great rumble to it BUT the good news is the original motor is being sold with the car. Pictures show both motors. The original is still together and the condition is unknown however there is no noticeable damage. The motor in the car appears to be new or very new and once I had it running (force feed gas to it and added a new battery) it started right up. After setting for most of the day it fired up with a touch of the key. Exciting to hear this thing run.

Paint is original and has been touched up several times. Even as a daily driver I would repaint.

Coves are like new and bonding areas look great.

Everything is on the car so no need to sort out parts.

Tires are nearly new with four original covers.

Brakes worked enough to stop the car but no further inspection was done.

White convertible top looks new and the hard top and headliner are beautiful. Hard top is Maroon and is hanging on the wall, well covered.

Trunk looks great.

Original generator is in place for what ever reason. No modifications were done to install new SBC motor.

All gauges are working and I added 5 gallons of fresh gas to the tank.

Any reasonable person would not plan to drive this home. If you ship it I will meet the hauler of your choice. All cost to shipping belong to the winning bidder.

Car is advertised several places so we reserve the right to end this auction at anytime.

I WILL CONSIDER REASONABALE OFFERS. I consider the open bid to be reasonable for the example but it must be sold so let me know what you think.

If you are new to bidding on E bay for high end items please refrain from biddingas I may not except the bid.

If you have questions please call
