Since the 80's It was used sparingly and only in the summer months. When I bought the car it had original paint, original interior, 283, powerglide etc, basically a sunburnt arizona virgin. I drove it through the summer of 2001 and then sold it, it changed hands a few times until a hotrodder got it and transformed it into the cruiser it is today. The original 283 engine was pulled and a new crate 350 was installed with a chrome aluminum intake manifold, Holley carb, HEI ignition, aluminum water pump, high output alternator and some chrome to brighten it up. The engine runs super nice and pulls nicely. The powerglide was exchanged for a more modern and reliable TH350. The brakes were changed out for a dual master cylinder and front disc brakes. The original factory power steering was retained and works great.The big money was spent on the air suspension, basically everything available from Ridetech at the time was purchased including tubular control arms front and rear, the bigger compressor, 4 way electric valve etc. He had the interior redone in an old school design and it looks nice, the dash was pinstriped and a nice steering wheel was installed. I really loved the original paint that was on it when I first bought the car back in 2001, it was the most perfect Patina you could ask for but not everyone is into that so the last owner painted the car the original colors and put a satin clear over the copper portion only, the roof has the shiny clear. The way the car is in the pictures is how its been for about 5 years. When the car became available , I was notified and I bought it on the spot. The car is a boatload of fun but its no where near perfect, the windshield and a few pieces of the side glass have cracks in them, if I remember correctly, it was that way 10 years ago when I first owned the wagon. Its a cool wagon you can get in a drive anywhere, draw a crowd when you pull into a cruise, or just enjoy as a daily driver, buts its not some fancy trailer queen, you will find the bumpers are original and not perfect and neither is the trim but its presentable and in my opinion needs to be left alone. You will notice different wheels in the pictures, when I bought the car back for the second time, the previous owner had 15" Astro supremes on it, though I thought they were cool, I really like the look of the larger diamerter wheels on these car so I put a set of Billet Specialties MAG G wheels on it in 18" and 20" diameters. Now that I am putting the car up for sale, I would rather sell it at a lower price with the 15" Astro supremes but I will make the Billet wheels available for an additional $2000 and I'll keep the astros. I have the car for sale locally and can make no promises that the car will make it the full 7 days of the auction. If you have interest, I encourage you to come view, call, or email because waiting for the last minute to put in a bid rarely works. Please save us as a favorite seller as we will be listing a super cool 1962 Bel Air Sedan as seen in the last picture.
