Please feel free to call for any questions, Joe @ 830.203.1117Bids are on a Dodge Custom Royal 4 door hardtop, year 1957 This is a serious auction: $1 start bid, no fooling, no reserve! Original:325 Super Red Ram enginepush button transmissionpower steeringdual exhaustAM tube radiotail light lensespaintchrome bumpers and fixturesAlso included are two 1957 Texas license plates that can be refurbished for use if approved by Motor Vehicle Departments upon registration. Current blue title is from the State of Texas, if winner of bid is a Texas resident and plans on registering this vehicle in the State of Texas, then winning bid also includes Texas Certificate of Title Form 130-U with information and signatures. The transmission shifted smoothly when it last ran, at the time it ran so smooth a glass of water filled to the rim could sit on the air intake and not spill a drop. The exterior is in good condition, not perfect. Until six months ago this vehicle was stored indoors for decades. No rust showed until just a month ago due to recent exposure to the weather. The sad story is I began to drain the fluids 5 years ago, had only drained the water, then noticed that the windshield wipers had been run, slight scratches on the glass (can be buffed out). So I pulled the battery, not thinking of what else might have happened. Fast forward to now, five years later, and the engine is seized. It appears to have been run with no water, so rings are locked. The chrome is original, paint is original. The interior is in good condition but does have some wear, particularly one button is hanging loose, and an odd wear spot in the column to the right and above the rear passengers head, sitting behind the front passenger position. This car is in good shape, except for the engine..... This car is a tremendous investment only going up in value and hard to find, this amount of original parts may not exist on others of this year/make/model.Call Joe at 830-203-1117 (if no answer leave a message, I will get back to you when I can)I can text or email more pictures upon request.
