Vehicle Detail
Very nice car that I have drove for nearly 3 years. Car is Texas tagged and driven daily.....Has aftermarket ac and heat but not hooked up. Has newer mag wheels custom made for the car and nice Firestone radial tires. I do have the hubcaps and wheels and will be included in the trunk when shipped. I replaced the motor last year with a newer 390 motor and car runs twice as good and parts easier to find. I do have the original motor but it is up to the buyer if they want and picking up. It was rebuilt once and runs good but now knocks. Ford does not have "Mathching Number" motors so this upgrade only helps it. The motor on the outside looks the same....it just runs better. Interior and car is a 93,000 mile survivor with only the seats and carpet ever touched. Paint is nice but does have 50+ years of chips and dings. Has newer dual exhaust with cutouts installed at front wheels. Car has zero rust underneath and came from Arizona its whole life. Some bubbles have appeared over the cut outs from the heat but no rust in body like most old cars. Car has been driven nearly 40,000 miles in last three years and is still a very nice car.Car is sold "as is". Would not be afraid to drive it anywhere in the United States......lots of power and a comfortable car. Any questions call me at 682-459-3078 On Sep-30-12 at 10:15:53 PDT, seller added the following information: I dont understand why this car didnt sell. I have watched 4 drs sell for more than this and old rust buckets. This is a beautiful 1950s car that runs like a scalded ape,looks good and zero rust . I will not relist and it cannot go cheaper. I payed $5000 down on this car and borrowed $15,000 more to buy it...yea....$20,000 and yall bid $6000 grand? I have aslo over the years added custom wheels,exhaust,new motor, and it has new interior and aftermarket ac and heat system. I have been paying it down as much as I can but I still owe over $10,000 on it. (at this price I was going to do a smaller loan to pay differance and get out from under loan) Its 2 weeks overdue now......if no one wants it goes back to bank . On Sep-30-12 at 14:04:16 PDT, seller added the following information: People are wondering about title being at bank......at beginning of auction I owed $12,500 on car.....balance is now $10,000. I have swapped the other to a new note. $10,000 is the least it will take to buy car period. I am not paying someone to take this car.....just offering it for balance owed. It is a local small bank and title can be secured in 30minutes in town. It is a clear texas title in my name. This will be the last chance to buy this car at any price. I have put pictures of motor on for those that ask. On Oct-02-12 at 14:24:24 PDT, seller added the following information: It was a nice day today so I took an hour and fixed the only things wrong with the car.....I replaced the leaking exhaust gasket, put in a new heater core and it works perfect....and fixed a oil pan oil leak it had. Me and my wife drove it 100 miles yesterday to go eat and it drives and rides perfect. You mash the gas it will slam you back in the seat with power through every gear. It is for sale here only....do not call after its over with a "best offer"....you will be told to get screwed.
