A beautiful 54 Corvette under restoration. Originally White, it was repainted with a slick Black paint job. Paint and body work by Mann's Corvette Center in Mishawaka, IN. The paint and body are in excellent condtition. On a scale of 10, the paint is at least a 9.5 if not better. The frame is one of the finest frames I've ever seen. It was sandblasted and painted, then re-assembled with all new hardware. The car was bought new in California and still has the original Black license plate. Almost all the chrome has been redone. There are a few pieces still needing new chrome. All original gauges, windshield, jack, radiator, dated spiral shocks, dated leaf springs, radio and cables, etc. The car is not missing much and what it is missing are available from different sources. It comes with the original 6 cyl engine with 74,000 miles on it. The head is not original to the block. It also comes with a new rebuilt top to bottom small block with a TCI turbo transmission. It has a dual quad intake installed. The original powerglide has also been rebuilt. Motor mount brackets for the V8 were welded onto the frame, but could easily be removed and not be seen where they were. The 6 cyl motor mounts are still in place on the frame. All of the interior is there and could be used as is or restore it back to original. Some of the parts will need restoration or new reproductions to replace them. Soft top frame will need restoration. Missing items include: hubcaps, exhaust and one short side trim piece and small misc stuff. I have a lot of small parts in labeled bags. There's a set of roller tires and wheels that go with it. Second owner bought it in CA in 1965 then sold it in 1988 and I bought it from him this year. Sorry, but no international bidders. I will not ship it overseas. U.S. only. There is no warranty, sold as is. Pay Pal deposit in 72 hrs, wired funds or cash upon delivery. I reserve the right to end the auction early.
