Let me summarize: 1. Body is straight, but requires blocking and paint. 2. Rust in the front lip of the hood. Rockers, inner fenders, trunk, floor, door bottoms are rust free and solid. 3. Original Kelsey Hayes wheels were stolen from storage along with the tonneau. Wheels are approx $1800.00 and tonneau is $800.00 4. Brakes do NOT work. Will need to be trailered for shipping. 5. Car is complete and requires all systems to be gone through. It is a total restoration projects. Not difficult, but not for everyone. Car deserves to be restored to its original condition. Well worth the effort. Thank you.On Dec-29-16 at 06:43:39 PST, seller added the following information: Top does not go up and down. Requires diagnosis and assembly.
