I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN GEORGIA TO RESTORE BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THERE ARE TOO MANY PROJECTS AND IT WILL BE AT LEAST A YEAR BEFORE I CAN GET STARTED ON IT. I AM GOING TO RUN IT ONCE ON EBAY AS A PROJECT ROLL ER AND IF IT DOESN'T SELL I'LL INSTALL AN ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION AND TRY IT AGAIN AT A HIGHER PRICE AS A DRIVER. I'LL DESCRIBE THE CAR AS BEST I CAN BUT I RECOMMEND COMING TO LOOK AT THE CAR OR SEND SOMEONE YOU TRUST TO CHECK IT OUT. MY RESEARCH TOLD ME A LITTLE AND IF I MAKE A MISTAKE I WOULD APPRECIATE CORRECTION SO NO ONE IS MISLEAD. I DON'T KNOW WHAT ENGINGE CAME IN THE CAR FOR SURE BUT I THINK IT MAY HAVE BEEN THE 235 STOVEBOLT SIX. ACCORDING TO THE SHIFTER THE TRANSMISSION WAS AN AUTOMATIC WHICH I GUESS WOULD BE A TURBOGLIDE OR A POWERGLIDE. ACCORDING TO THE TRIM TAG THE CAR WAS BLACK FROM THE FACTORY AND I THINK IT IS THE ORIGINAL PAINT.THE PAINT IS SHOT OF COURSE BUT IT LOOKS ORIGINAL TO ME. WHAT LOOKS LIKE THE ORIGINAL SELLING DEALER'S DECAL IS STILL PARTIALLY REMAINING ON THE TRUNK LID. THE BAD: NO ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION, SHE'S A ROLLER. THE GRILLE AND BUMPERS ARE MISSING ALONG WITH THE FRONT SEAT AND THE DOOR PANELS. PART OF THE FLOORS ARE GOOD BUT THEY REALLY NEED TO BE REPLACED IF YOU WANT TO MAKE IT A NICE CAR AND IF YOUR BUDGET ALLOWS.THE TRUNK FLOOR IS WEAK AND NEEDS REPAIR AND THE LIP THAT HOLDS THE SEAL IS VERY GOOD,ABOUT 90% OR BETTER. THE LIGHTS AND DOOR GLASS ARE ALSO MISSING AND I'M SURE I'VE LEFT SOMETHING OUT SO COME LOOK AT IT TO BE SURE.. THE GOOD. THERE IS A BRAND NEW BLACK CONVERTIBLE TOP INSTALLED THAT HAS ONLY BEEN ON THE CAR 48 HOURS AT THE TIME OF THIS WRITING. THE SHEETMETAL ON THE CAR IS ALL USEABLE AND WILL NOT NEED MUCH REPAR. THERE ARE A LOT OF DENTS AND DINGS TO DEAL WITH AND SOME RUST BUT OVERALL THIS 50 YEAR OLD CAR IS UNUSUALLY SOLID. THE CAR HAS POWER STEERING AND POWER TOP AS WELL. THE HOOD AND DECKLID ARE NICE ALONG WITH THE FIREWALL. I TOOK QUITE A FEW SHOTS OF THE FIREWALL , IT IS UNUSUAL TO FIND ONE THIS SOLID AND IT SHOULD BE A FAIRLY EASY RESTORATION DEPENDING ON YOUR SKILLS AND EQUIPMENT..THE TIRES AND WHEELS ARE AVERAGE AND LOOK LIKE THE ORIGINAL 14" STEEL ONES THAT ARE FACTORY. I THINK I COVERED EVERTHING BUT PLEASE CALL ME AT 772-201-1905 WITH ANY QUESTIONS. IF YOU HAVE ZERO FEEDBACKS OR BID RETRACTIONS PLEASE CALL ME AT 772-201-1905 OR I MAY HAVE TO REJECT YOUR BID. I CAN TAKE ALMOST ANY FORM OF PAYMENT INCLUDING PERSONAL CHECKS BUT ALL FUNDS MUST CLEAR BOTH BANKS BEFORE I CAN RELEASE THE CAR. WIRE TRANSFER ALWAYS WORKS BEST. I TRAVEL A LOT THROUGH THE SOUTHERN STATES SO I MAY BE ABLE TO HELP WITH DELIVERY IF I'M GOING YOUR WAY.THANKS FOR LOOKING AND GOD BLESS, MERRY CHRISTMAS. STEVE 772-201-1905
