Description

New barn find. RUST FREE Willys Knight, odel 56, door sedan for sale. That is not rust in the photos, t is sixty-five years of dust! I have not cleaned the exterior of this car since I pulled it out of the garage it was in. Everyone is looking for that original patina these days, ere it is. The inside only needed a good vacuuming to clean up and that has been done. The paint will shine if the car is washed.
This vehicle had been in storage since 1949 in a dry garage on a North Carolina tobacco farm outside of Raleigh. It is completely original and has been family owned since new. The owner passed away in the early 1980's and his son inherited the car. The son passed away and the grandson inherited the car about a year ago and I purchased it a month ago.
All gauges work. The interior is in good condition with the exception of a small hole in the rear seat and some mohair loss from moth damage. The headliner is perfect and the original window shades are intact. The electrical system is in great shape since it was manufactured with armor covered wiring. The canvas roof of the car does have a split in it and should be repaired or taped over at a minimum.
As I said, he car is completely original with only necessary items being replaced to make it drivable. Everything works on this car. It can and has been driven. It is licensed and insured. It starts and runs perfectly. Holds good oil pressure.

5 new tires and inner tubes (spare not yet installed)
