THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST ORIGINAL AND COMPLETE 1953 FORDS I HAVE EVER SEEN. THESE ARE COOL OLD CARS FROM THE 1950-1951 AND 1952 SHOEBOX STYLES. I BOUGHT THE CAR IN SOUTH GEORGIA. I WAS TOLD THAT THE 43K MILES SHOWING ON THE ODOMETER WERE ORIGINAL. THE PAINT APPERS TO BE THE ORIGINAL PAINT. THE FLATHEAD V8 IS THE ORIGINAL. IT RUNS LIKE A SEWING MACHINE!! NO BLOWBY OR KNOCKING, PEGS THE OIL PRESSURE!! IT HAS HAD A RECENT RADIATOR REBUILD AND NEW WATER PUMPS INSTALLED. NEW VOLTAGE REGULATOR AND BATTERY. NEW MUFFLER AND TAIL PIPE. NEW WIDE WHITEWALLS. ALL THE HEADLIGHTS, TAILLIGHTS AND EVEN THE TAG LIGHT WORKS. IT NEEDS A DIMMER SWITCH TO MAKE THE LIGHTS WORK ON HIGH. THE WIPERS WORK, AS DOES ALL THE GAUGES AND SPEEDOMETER!! THE RADIO DOES NOT WORK. IT HAS THE ORIGINAL KEYS THAT WORK ALL THE LOCKS WITH EASE. ALL THE GLASS IS IN AMAZING CONDITION!! THE RUBBERS AROUND THE FRONT AND BACK NEED REPLACED.THE HEATER AND BLOWER MOTOR WORKS GREAT. DOORS OPEN AND SHUT LIKE NEW. ALL GAPS ARE AMAZING AND EVERY PANEL FITS PERFECT. THE MOHAIR HEADLINER NEEDS REPLACING AND THE SEATS NEED RECOVERING. THE STAINLESS TRIM IS THE GREAT SHAPE. BUMPERS AND GRILL NEED RECHROMING. TRANSMISSION SHIFTS VERY NICE AND THE CLUTCH FEELS GOOD. THE TRUNK FLOOR AND INSIDE OF TRUNK LID ARE GREAT. THE ONLY RUST THROUGH I HAVE FOUND IS THE VERY BOTTOM OF THE DRIVER SIDE QUARTER PANEL AT THE BACK, VERY EASY FIX. THE REST OF THE RUST YOU SEE IS SURFACE OR A GREAT PATINA. THE BODY IS GUN BARREL STRAIGHT WITH ONLY A FEW SMALL DENTS. YOU CAN SEE THE JAMBS ARE NICE BY THE PICS AND CHECK OUT THE OLD SINCLAIR OIL CHANGE STICKERS IN THE PHOTOS. IT DRIVES GREAT FOR A UNRESTORED CAR. THIS CAR WOULD BE A EASY RESTORE OR JUST LEAVE IT AS-IS AND ENJOY A PIECE OF AMERICAN HISTORY. I HAVE INCLUDED PHOTOS OF DIFFERNT AREAS INCLUDING BOTTOM SIDE OF HOOD AND TRUNK. THERE ARE ALSO PICS UNDER THE CAR. THE STEERING WHEEL IS GREAT WITH ONLY A COUPLE VERY TINY CRACKS. I HAVE SENT OFF FOR THE TITLE IN MY NAME. I SHOULD BE RECIEVING IT IN THE MAIL ANY DAY NOW.
