Description for Dodge Other 1951
***BARN FIND!!!I bought this car from the daughter of the 94 year old owner that recently passed away. This Dodge has been in his loving care since the 1980's. He is what I believe to be the third owner since new. He was a former auto mechanic. When his health started to diminish. he carefully prepped the car properly long term storage. All fluids drained in the engine and brake lines. All fluid drained from tank and. pump. carb. radiator and lines. The car was then rolled in the garage for a 24 year hibernation. The daughter of the owner told me she believes the miles are correct which is one of the reasons why he purchased the car originally. I have no documentation to that effect so it is being sold as miles exempt due to age. As you can see from the PICS I purchased it right out of the garage from where it sat nearly a quarter century. I carefully flat bedded the car home to my garage where I started the delicate process of getting it back on the road. After doing all the proper maintenance to the fuel. brakes. and cooling systems. 24 hrs later the car was running like a sewing machine and driving. We have tons of original paperwork on the car including original point of purchase paperwork from selling dealer when new. This old Dodge is tight as a drum. You can drive it cross county right now. It has all the signs that the car is a legit 30. 00 mile car. Hardly any wear on seats. pedals. steering wheel. shifter. ect. ect. Not one rip or tear in the interior. It looks like a time capsule. The trunk is clean and complete. The engine is totally stock and unmolested. Best of all. There is no rust on the car. No rot. The floors are perfect and the underside is clean and rust free. You will not find a more original or solid car anywhere in the US than this one. It has been stored inside nearly its's whole life. All the seals and gaskets are soft. Nothing is broken or brittle. It does show some patina on the hood and tops of fenders where the finish has faded due do what I'd guess was a leaky roof. Paint damage is minimal and the car shows very well for the age. It is missing the original hood ornament. Keep the car stock or make it your next street rod. Feel free to contact me with all questions. Bid and buy with confidence.
