Vehicle Detail
Just a cool old Survivor this old Henry is pretty neat. Mileage is 42,000 and believed to be original. All original except one repaint decades ago and worn away just right. Car has always been maintained as a driver and pleasure driven only and garaged. All lights, dome lights, gauges, wipers, heater, spot light, horn, everything works! Neat old tube radio works and makes sound but needs the antenna cable. Even the clock works. Dash is super cool as is the steering wheel, knobs, trim etc. All the Art Deco trim is just awesome. Back seat is like your favorite couch. Previous owners(two brothers) had for over 40 years and got the car with 29,000 miles out of Texas. The original 59 A B flathead V8 runs like a sewing machine, clutch feels good as does trans., new battery this year, brakes are a bit touchy but this old girl still gets driven on occasion. It is very well aged for being 67 years old but everything is original and unrestored. Has some rust but still very solid, mainly just at rear of rockers where dirt was packed and held moisture(see pic)very clean underneath and in trunk, I wouldn't touch a thing. If you look at the door handles they always sag due to heavy handles, due to minimal wear on pedals and overall wear on items, I believe the miles are actual and was sold to me as such by the old gent.. Don't get me wrong, it's still 67 years old but things are aged and fabric is deteriorated but not really worn. Keep up on her vitals, take the side roads and have a blast from the past. Major fun factor at an affordable price. It does need some tires, I just drive it locally 10-20 miles at a time but I think you could go anywhere with new tires and plenty of time. Comes with some extra parts, small bit and pieces, and the original glass tail light lenses. Parts go with car and will not be sold separately. Please do not bid if you have less than 10 sales and 100% positive feedback. Car may be sold at any time and auction cancelled. You are welcome to schedule a time and view the car. Has spare tire and jack with lugwrench, 2 side glass pieces are cracked. Old insurance plaque on back does not go with sale, it belongs to my friend.
