YOU ARE BIDDING ON ANOTHER OF MY VEHICLES FROM MY PRIVATE COLLECTION. THIS IS A GREAT PIECE OF HISTORY AND A ONE OWNER VEHICLE OWNED BY A SERVICEMAN IN THE UNITED STATES NAVY. THE SAILOR WHO OWNED THIS VEHICLE WAS STATIONED ON THE USS TRUCKEE. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL NEW YORK TITLE THAT HAS THE NAME OF THE SAILOR AND THE TRUCKEE ON IT. THE SAILOR SOLD THE TRUCK TO A GENTLEMAN IN NEW YORK IN 1994 WHO NEVER TITLED IT AND NEVER USED IT THE CAR AND LEFT IT IN HIS BASEMENT, SO I PURCHASED IT AS A BARN FIND. I ALSO HAVE A LETTER FROM THE DMV OF NEW YORK WHEN NELSON ROCKEFELLER WAS GOVERNOR, FROM THE NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION RELEASING ANY LIENS ON THE CAR. ITS A NICE PIECE OF HISTORY. THE TITLE ALSO LOOKS SUITABLE FOR HAVING A COLOR SCAN OF AND FRAMED ALONG WITH THE CAR. I PURCHASED THE CAR AND SHIPPED IT HERE TO FLORIDA. I HAD THE CAR REPAINTED IN THE ORIGINAL CODE FACTORY WHITE IN PPG PAINT. THE INTERIOR US UNTOUCHED EXCEPT FOR NEW CARPETING AS THE OLD ONE SMELLED PRETTY BADLY. THE CAR IS A ORIGINAL 4 SPEED CAR WITH AIR CONDITIONER. IT HAS 51000 ORIGINAL MILES. I REINFORCED THE SUSPENSION AND DIFFERENTIAL, REPLACED ALL BRAKE LINES, COMPLETE BRAKE SYSTEM, CALIPERS, MASTER CYLINDER, LINES, ETC, ALL IS BRAND NEW. EMERGENCY BRAKE IS NOT WORKING. THE RIMS ARE ORIGINAL AND CODED TO THE CAR AND REPAINTED IN CORRECT FACTORY RALLY ALUMINUM PAINT. THE TIRES ARE BRAND NEW AND HAVE LESS THAN 25 MILES ON THEM. BF GOODRICH RADIALS. THE ENIGINE RUNS STRONG. THE UNDERCARRIAGE WAS PAINTED AND UNDERCOATED. THE BIRDCAGE IS SOLID. THE LUGGAGE RACK, EXAUST TIPS, BEAUTY RINGS , ARE NEW. I HAVE OTHER NEW PARTS THAT COME WITH IT, MIRRORS, TRIM, SHIFT BOOT ETC. THE RADIO IS ORIGINAL AND THE ANTENNA WAS REPLACED. THE CONVERTIBLE TOP IS NEW AND FRAME WAS RREMOVED AND REPAINTED. REAR TAIL LIGHTS AND REAR BUMPERS ARE NEW AS IS THE FRONT PARKING LAMS AND GRILLS. THIS CAR WAS STORED FOR MANY MANY YEARS AND I LEFT IT AS ORIGINAL AS I COULD WHILE REPLACING AND REDOING THE THINGS IT REQUIRED. IT HAS BEEN IN MY COLLECTION FOR A WHILE AND I JUST SOLD ANOTHER NAVY VEHICLE LAST WEEK AND NOW ITS TIME FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO OWN IT. THANKS ..NELSON PLS SEND YOUR PHONE NUMBER OR EMAIL WITH QUESTIONS. THANKS NELSON On Apr-26-11 at 16:42:06 PDT, seller added the following information: CAR RUNS AND DRIVES STRONG.
