I HAVE HAD THIS CAR 5 OR 6 YEARS IN STORAGE WITH NO TIME TO USE IT, BEFORE I GOT IT IT SAT SINCE 1983. IT WAS RE-PAINTED ONCE IN ITS LIFETIME WITH ITS ORIGINAL COLORS BUT DOES HAVE PATENA IN THE SENSE OF FADE AND SCRATCHES. THE LAST TIME I DROVE IT WAS A YEAR AGO, IT DOES RUN AND DRIVE BUT I WOULD RECOMMEND A CARB REBUILD. IT STEERS AND STOPS TOTALLY FINE. THE CAR IS VERY SOLID AS PICTURED THE SMALL WHITE SQUARE IS A MAGNET THAT I PLACED ON THE BODY PANELS TO SHOW THAT THEY ARE METAL AND A METAL WILL STICK. THERE ARE SOME SMALL DINGS ON SOME OF THE SIDE TRIM AND ON THE SIDES OF THE CAR-NOTHING MAJOR AT ALL. THE UNDERNEATH IS VERY SOLID, WHEN I GOT THE CAR I DROPPED THE OIL PAN AND CLEANED IT OUT DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT SAT FOR MANY YEARS. THE CAR HAS A NEW GRILL, FENDER MIRRORS, WINDOW CRANKS AND INNER AND OUTER DOOR HANDLES. IT HAS A VINTAGE TRICO WINDSHIELD WASHER UNIT, 1950'S CHEVY TISSUE DISPENSER, VINTAGE VISOR MIRROR, VINTAGE GUIDE TRAFFIC LIGHT VIEWER, VINTAGE SUN TACH WITH EB9A BOX, A PAIR OF VINTAGE SURFBOARDS THAT HAVE PATENA, INTERIOR NEEDS DOOR PANELS, HEADLINER AND CARPET, ALL GLASS INTACT WITH NO CRACKS, THE FRONT CLIP WAS REMOVED AND ALL INNER FENDERS, INSIDE OF FENDERS, UNDER HOOD, CORE SUPPORT, SPLASH PAN, BRACKETS, HOOD HINGES, HOOD LATCHES, BRAKE DRUMS AND OIL PAN WERE SANDBLASTED AND PAINTED CORRECT COLORS. THE FIREWALL WAS CLEANED WITH KEROSENE AND ORIGINAL MARKINGS WERE HIGHLIGHTED. THIS CAR HAS A 283 V8 AND CAST IRON MANUAL TRANSMISSION.THE TWO REAR PASSENGER FLOOR SECTIONS HAVE A PATCH PANEL OVER THEM BUT LOOKING AT THEM FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR THE ORIGINAL FLOORS ARE UNTOUCHED. NOT SURE WHY THESE ARE THERE BUT I DID NOT WANT TO MESS WITH THEM DO TO THE FACT THAT ONCE CARPET IS INSTALLED YOU WON'T SEE THEM. THERE WERE EXTRA LONG SHACKLES AND SHOCK EXTENDERS WERE INSTALLED IN THE REAR, CUSTOM DRAG BAR IN PLACE OF THE FRONT BUMPER. ALL DOORS SHUT LIKE NEW AND ARE SOLID. THE BACK TIRES ARE DRY FROM AGE, IT HAS A ORIGINAL RADIO DELETE PLATE AND CLOCK, VINTAGE SEAT BELTS FRONT AND BACK, UNSPLIT FOLD DOWN BACK SEAT AND A UNSPLIT RE-COVERED FRONT SEAT, NEW GAS TANK, NEWER REAR SPRINGS. THE CHROME BUMPER AND TAILIGHT HOUSINGS ARE SOLID BUT WOULD RECOMMEND A RE-CHROMING. OVERALL A VERY COOL NOSTALGIC RIDE. FEEL FREE TO ASK QUESTIONS AND GOOD LUCK!!
