You are bidding on a long wheelbase Silver Spur. This car is mechanically sound and does the 340 mile-round trip from Norfolk to Charlottesville without a hiccup. The AC blows cold, hydraulics and brakes work well and the transmission shifts smoothly. All struts have been recently replaced, 3 of the 4 in the last 1000 miles. Ride quality remains better than most modern cars related to long wheelbase and weight. The radiator has recently been re-cored. Tires have less than 2000 miles of use. The car looks very imposing but close inspection will show that the scuttles in front of the front and rear windows have been inexpertly resprayed. There are also a few bubbles of rust at the bottom of the rear window. The antenna does not extend when the radio is switched on and the housing of the front seat motors is cracked and seats have to be adjusted manually. The automatic locking sometime sticks on the rear L door and needs to be opened manually. The air pump has been removed but will come with the car. I would prefer prospective buyers to drive the car before bidding and hopefully restrict bidders to those that understand the glory and idiosyncrasies of these cars.
