Description:

They are not hooked up, it has dual exhaust, dummy spots, new door panels on the front doors, new chrome drivers outside door handle, new chrome trunk emblem. Carpet, seats, and headliner all look original. Windshield has two rock chips, the biggest is around a nickel sized, dash pad is in great shape, all other windows are in great shape. Headlights, tail lights, turnsignals, horn, wipers, all in good working order, the odometer and speedometer do not work, I think it is a bad speedo cable. All gauges work except Amp and temp gauge. It has an aftermarket temp gauge that is working. The factory radio and clock do not work. The instrument panel lighting use to work but recently quit working. Paint is about a 7-8 out of 10. It does have some bubbling on the bottom passenger door and in the rear by the bumper. See pics for better idea. I have lots of other pics that I can email if you would like to see anything in particular. We have owned this car since 2012. Always been garaged and has only seen rain once since we have had it and that was on the way home the day we purchased it. Always been covered. Driven at least once a month if not more. It has always cranked and has never left me stranded. Leaks a little ps fluid from the hoses and mayb a drop of oil. Never had to add any fluid to it. Runs really good for a 56. The previous owner drove it from Raleigh to NJ and back! Trunk is rust free, chrome trim has minor flaws. This is not a show car it is a driver. But it is one of the best looking cars out there and gets thumbs up everywhere we drive it. Clean and clear NC title. Feel free to call with any questions. Nine One Nine Six Two Three Four Three Eight Six. Thanks for looking and good luck!
