Vehicle Detail

1939 Dodge 5 window victorian coupe RARE vintage classic restoration just done ! Just finished restoration on virtually rust free southwestern car. Body was removed and chemically dipped / stripped. All remaining components were media blasted and self etched primered & painted. DuPont brand primers and paint used through out process. EVERY component was done correctly. Engine, transmission, clutch pressure plate, driveshaft & joints, rearend gears, seals & bearings, all front and rear suspension components, fuel system, carb, brakes and hardware, master cylinder, complete new correct reproduction wiring front to rear, all new glass with fresh rubber gaskets, new complete interior, instrumentation, lighting, steering wheel, heater, dashboard and all window garnish mouldings redone to look as wood grained, correct rearview mirror with pullstring 48 hour clock inset, correct steel wheels, 5 new B. F. Goodrich Silvertown wide whitewall tires, 4 NOS beautiful waterfall hubcaps. All chrome work done on various components was done to highest of standards. All stainless was professionally straightened and polished to a gleaming luster. Body panel fitment is stunning. Doors close at a simple push. All window hardware rebuilt. Trunk is finished with spare mounted. Running boards are one of a kind restoration. Stripped old rubber off steel boards. Constructed new molds out of wood. Jigged everything and injected epoxy based rubber - whala - new running boards ! Collectors, both domestic and foreign, this would make a very nice addition to your collection of vintage classics.I have elected not to install the hubcaps or running boards at this point as I was going for the late 40's or early 50's look. They are of course a part of the auction.Winning bidder is responsible for a $ 500.00 deposit within 24 hours close of auction. Please feel free to ask questions. Please feel welcome to come look at this classic in person at our home.If winning bidder elects to use transporter service I will be present to record the loading process while on my property.See my FEEDBACK ! Good luck fellow Ebayers. Car is advertised locally - so I reserve the right to end auction early in need be.On Aug-31-14 at 06:49:37 PDT, seller added the following information: Need to quickly clarify that my car is a DODGE D11 coupe. I did not recognize my error as having DeSoto in the title description - my bad. I am not able to EDIT the title do to Ebays rules after bids have began. Sorry for this inconvenience. Again, good luck to all fellow Ebayers - bid to WIN ! On Sep-02-14 at 19:45:42 PDT, seller added the following information: I have added new photo to show that I have now mounted the left & right running board back on the Dodge. It does have a more completed look. I also made my first attempt at creating a Youtube video. It is not all that good. Not sure about all correct camera settings. However I hope it is somewhat helpful Just go to Youtube and type in 1939 Dodge. My video is by Larry Graham and last for 3:20 You may need popcorn for this one......
