Vehicle Detail

Ebay pulled this Tbird because it was listed as a project and is a complete car. They get to charge more fees because of this, thanks . I have had tons of interest and will relist and tell my story again. This was purchased from an elderly gentleman in 1974 from new york. He purchased it from the original owner. I has had one cheap repaint, and the rest has never been touched. This car is rusty but well worth restoring. It is rare willow green with two tone green interior. Power steering, brakes, windows not power seat. Interior needs to be redone but is 100% complete and in very nice shape. All instruments are super nice, seat is nice door panels need replacement, but all important parts are present and usable. Car has automatic transmission, rare non porthole hardtop, super nice shape. All stainless and nice and straight, all chrome should be redone. Rust issues are as follows. Inner fenders by the air ducts are bad,along with the air ducts. Inner and rockers should be replaced. Doglegs, and lower rear quarters are weak. Trunk area is very nice, small hole in back left corner. Floors pan drivers side need replace, see picture. Frame is good and floor braces are in tact. Door pillars are solid car rock car with doors open. Engine compartment is complete motor turns by hand. No reason to believe that it won't start. I don't have a ignition key, buy working trunk key is present. Correct dress up kit, original brown starter solinoid, correct fuel filter. Everything correct and still assembled as it should be. Date plate as follows. 40 JJ XM 19J120608 . Please ask questions before you bid. Should make a really nice and rare car when completed. I have some small left over parts my personal restoration of a 57 Tbird that i will make available to winning bidder very reasonalble. Some small rubber parts, master cylander, fuel pump, small clips and trim parts. I have one fender skirt complete, and the other molding. I can assist with shipping at new owners expense. I will help however I can, I would love to see this car finished because of the rare color. I have a clean Wisconsin title dated from 1979. Don't be afraid to make me an offer car is sale locally, great project for the right person. Thanks for looking check out my other auctions for tbird and mustang parts.
