After a year and a half of driving this car its time for me to let it go. This car is drenched in black paint, custom chrome and rich leather.

The style of this Coupe is timeless, and the build quality is top knotch. The bugs are worked out of it, and its ready for a new owner. Seroius buyer are encuoraged to call with questions. Rob 920-819-8086. I can answer any of your question by phone or email. The only problem I want to note is the odometer keeps turning over whenever the key is on. It is wired correctly and SW says a new gauge will fix it. The speedo is calibrated and works fine. Keep in mind its not a new car, it is a collection of restored old parts, and it handles like a buggy sprung early Ford hot rod. This is a bare bones build. No blinkers, parking brake, flashers, seat belts, neutral safety switchor horn. You can add whatever you want once its yours. Its not a detailed out trailer queen, I drive this car and it shows. Please understand what you are bidding on, and call with questions. I want the new owner to walk away pleased. $1000 deposit due within 24 hours of auction close.
