Hello and thanks for looking at my 1941 Club Coupe Super DeLuxe. I originally purchased it for my Father for Christmas, as it is identical to his first car. The problem is that at 84, he is not able to use a car without power steering and so it is time for her to have a new home. After my purchase, I had the brake system completely overhauled and a new wiring loom installed so that the lights would work. And they do. It does not have turn signals but it does have a very cool shaved trunk lid with electric switch to open it. It has what appears to be VW Beetle seats in front and the stock rear bench seat. The rest of the interior is in need of total restoration, as are the gauges. At some point the color was changed from yellow to silver and remnants of the yellow paint are throughout the interior. The vehicle had enjoyed an engine swap to a Buick V6 at some point prior to the last owner's purchase. It gets remarkably good MPG and has sufficient oomph to satisfy those who are not focused on the drag strip. A new automatic choke carburetor was installed to make cold starting much easier. It has the automatic transmission from a Buick V6 of similar vintage (mid-1990's).. The body work has both lead and Bondo patches in the typical places, and the paint is certainly presentable as a "10 footer". The tires are old and dry, but have good tread. All in all, it is a fun driver but may certainly be considered a fine candidate for a full restoration. I have a small collection of additional trim pieces for the interior and exterior. The vehicle is being shown to interested parties in the Naples Florida area, and seller reserves the right to end this auction early in the event of a local sale. There is no warranty expressed or implied with this vehicle, but I can guarantee that driving this American classic will put a smile on your face! If you are not able to make the deposit payment within the first 24 hours as noted in the ad, your transaction will be cancelled. Sorry. I would really like to see this vehicle heading to a good new home and would rather not see my or your time wasted.

The trunk has only one rust area I have seen but I have not pulled up all the carpet to inspect. The vehicle is an older rest-mod and has all the holes in the firewall that any buyer should expect. I have learned to appreciate the air they let into the cabin. There is an older drain hole-but showing no surrounding rust-near the driver's right foot that I have covered with a piece of metal and sealed with silicone. It is about the size of half dollar. The door bottoms are surface rust covered-likely needing patching in places but the doors sound solid when shut.
