Description:

The jazz musician opened the hasp on the derelict garage. As the the light penetrated the dingy basement a whoosh of dust exited the old door. Inside the dimly lit cellar 2 old cars sat forlornly awaiting attention. They had belonged to a master mechanic who had aged beyond the time frame of completing them. With a heavy sigh the 5 of us began to empty the garage and air up tires. The cars rolled easily as they hadn't been exposed to the elements in decades. Onto the flatbed they went and the whole neighborhood descended on the prime property in a desperate land grab. We were out of there in a cloud of French dust. This 504 coughed to life and chugged a hearty chug on old diesel. Soon it began to hum. The fun ended when it was discovered the clutch master was dead. The car won't go into gear while running. It starts now quite easily but the hoses are brittle and need replacing. A car like this after being off the road for so long will need attention to many little things. The rims are quite attractive and 2 have taken some hits. We needed lug nuts so there are only 3 holding the wheels in place. The seats are quite supple and the car is in ok shape inside. The headliner is fine but I couldn't open the sunroof. Probably because it is french and i don't understand it. French cars are cute, functional and unorthodox, 3 words rarely used together. This is a project. It can come your way with a press of the button. so BE CAREFUL! harris.
