1954 FORD CUSTOMLINE THIS CAR WAS DISCOVERED WHEN A FRIEND OF MINE PURCHASED 80 ACRES IN KEWEENAW PENINSULA MICHIGAN FOR HUNTING. I HAD IT HAULED OUT ON A FLATBED TRUCK AND BEGAN WORKING ON IT IN 2004. I STRIPPED IT DOWN TO BARE METAL AND REPAIRED MANY AREAS. IT CURRENTLY HAS SEVERAL COATS OF PRIMER APPLIED. I REMOVED ALL INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR ITEMS SUCH AS TRIM, SEATS, EMBLEMS AND SO FORTH AND WILL COME WITH THE CAR IN THE SAME CONDITION AS I FOUND IT. PLUS LOOK AT ALL THE EXTRAS THAT ARE PICTURED. NEW TAIL LIGHTS LENSE, LIGHT GASKETS, BACKUP LENS, NEWER SHOP MANUAL ( WHICH IS MANDATORY FOR RESTO), NEW FORD KEYS, NEW CHROME DRIVERS SIDE MIRROR, AND SO MUCH MORE. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTOS, THE SEATS ARE NOT INSTALLED. I DO HAVE THEM BUT THEY WILL NEED UPHOLSTERING. RECENTLY FINISHED A FLOOR SECTION WHICH IS ABOUT 90% COMPLETE. USING EASTWOOD'S BLACK RUST ENCAPSULATOR, PAINTED ON THE REBUILT STEEL FLOORS WHICH WILL PROTECT IT FROM ANY FUTURE RUST. THE TRUNK AREA IS ALSO FINISHED AND READY FOR PAINT. INCLUDED IN THE SALE PRICE IS BOTH ROCKER PANELS WHICH WILL REQUIRE WELDING IN PLACE. THE CAR, TO MY BEST OF KNOWLEDGE HAS NOT BEEN INVOLVED IN ANY WRECK. THE CAR SAT SINCE 1962 WHEN IT WAS PARKED DUE TO A BLOWN HEAD GASKET, (EVIDENTLY COULDN'T AFFORD TO HAVE IT FIXED AT THAT TIME). THE 239 CI BLOCK IS STILL IN THE CAR WITH THE COMPLETE ORIGINAL DRIVETRAIN. HAS A FORDOMATIC TRANSMISSION IN IT. MOST OF THE UNDERCARRIAGE IS COVERED WITH EASTWOOD'S RUST CONVERSION. THE FRAME IS IN GOOD CONDITION, AN AREA NEAR THE ENGINE MAY NEED REINFORCED WHERE THERE IS RUST THROUGH. THE CAR HAS BEEN GARAGED AND OUT OF THE WEATHER SINCE 2004. THE DRUM BRAKES WERE FROZEN AT FIRST BUT NOW THE DRUMS ARE OFF, THE WHEELS TURN FREELY. I THEN HAD NEW RADIALS INSTALLED ON THE ORIGINAL 15" WHEELS THAT ARE THE CLOSEST IN SIZE TO THE BIAS PLY USED IN THE 50'S. SO, THE CAR IS IN GOOD CONDITION FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO TAKE OVER WHERE I LEFT OFF. VERY LITTLE WORK LEFT TO DO ON THE BODY PREP FOR PAINTING. GOOD BODY FOR KEEPING IT A CLASSIC OR TURN IT INTO A ROD.
