This is a rust free High Desert 2-owner car I bought it for my wife (they are the same year) and she thought it was cool. Since then she changed her mind and thinks that our 1954 two door wagon is cooler (because she can put her "stand up base fiddle" in the back oh well ! I took this car and without changing the overall appearance , made it a car that could be driven safely and dependably . this car has yet to be put on the street . All the work is fresh/new/unused. all parts are the best available and everything done with in mind the fact that "it better be dependable,or else" If you are married you know what I mean. the following list is as complete as I could make it but I am sure I have still forgotten some things. The parts etc. are listed with "cost" only no labor is included at all. As well you can compare what prices are out there and you will find they are all reasonable.

On Nov-12-12 at 10:59:56 PST, seller added the following information: this car has ZERO miles since the work has been done on it ....the 56,000 miles is a guess as to how many the original car actually has (based on the Odometer )
