Brief owner's history: My dad bought this car in fairly decent, drive-able condition. This car was his passion. He machined a lot of the hardware himself in stainless steel. Painted and powder coated, scrubbed and swore and painted some more. After his passing, I carefully boxed everything up, labeled what I could and moved everything into another in-door storage facility. I will post additional pictures upon request, or as space becomes available. As I mentioned, this is a complete car and if you've ever done a frame-off restoration you will understand that photographing everything he did and posting the pics is well . . . just not feasible! The frame, rear end and parts of the engine have been restored. I believe the engine and all other components are stock and in various stages of restoration.
Flatbed, or large enclosed box truck needed for pick up. We have access to a forklift to assist with loading and will shrink-wrap all pallets However, shipping arrangements, completed loading, insurance, etc. are the responsibility of the buyer.
Please, no trades.
Thank you.
