This car has been fully rebuilt.It runs and drives excellent. The desert patina was left to show its age and battle scars. Yes there is a shotgun blast in the hood. This car has stories to tell!! Other than that the body is almost mint.There seem to be a few people who looking at the pictures think this car is a rust bucket, which nothing could be further from the truth. I have included close ups of the rear quarters. The rust is surface rust from the outside. It was driven in the desert for years before being parked and thus the tires kicked dirt and rocks at the paint and chipped it. After sitting for 40 years it surface rusted. The quarters are solid. The only area of any concern (also pictured)is the passenger front fender. Package tray and filler panel had damage from the vinyl top rotting off the car when it sat but the filler was patch replaced and the package tray wasrebraced. Trunk floor is super solid with no damage at all.
It starts right up, the instruments work and it is a great cruiser that needs nothing to enjoy now. You get thumbs up everywhere you go. It runs cool with the aluminum radiator with electric fans. It only turns 1950 RPM doing 80 down the highway so you can cruise all day and stop for less gas. This is your chance to own a true low mile 138 vin SS396 car with numbers matching components, yet get to enjoy it without risking the important numbers matching drivetrain which comes with but isn't installed in the car. Drive it home and park it in your garage. Tons of great documentation goes with the car also. Fly into Phoenix and drive it home or I can do my part to make it easy for your shipper to pick up.
