I STARTED THIS RESTORATION 30 YEARS AGO. IT WAS TOTALLY DISASSEMBLED AND TAKEN OFF THE FRAME FOR PAINT. IT SAT IN MY GARAGE ALL THESE YEARS WHILE I WORKED ON OTHER PROJECTS. NOW, I'M TRYING TO OPEN UP SOME SPACE IN MY GARAGE AND JUST DON'T FEEL ABLE TO DO THE WORK NECESSARY TO FINISH THIS VERY WORTHY CAR. I HAVE ALL THE PARTS. THE FRONT FENDERS, DOORS, TRUNK LID AND HOOD WERE CHEMICALLY STRIPPED, PRIMED AND PAINTED INSIDE AND OUT. THE SEATS WERE REUPHOLSTERED WHEN I GOT THE CAR AND THEY'RE STILL MINT - GENUINE LEATHER AND A MATERIAL ON THE REVERSE SIDE THAT RESEMBLES THE ORIGINAL. THIS CAR WAS NEARLY RUST FREE. IT HAD BEEN COATED WITH COSMOLINE UNDERNEATH. THE HEADLIGHT HOODS, ROCKERS, DOG LEGS, FLOOR AND ALL THE TYPICAL RUST AREAS WERE ABSOLUTELY RUST FREE. I HAVE MANY PICTURES OF THE RESTORATION. THE ENGINE WAS REBUILT MANY YEARS AGO AND NOW WILL NOT SPIN WITH A BREAKER BAR. THE TRANS WAS REBUILT BUT MAY NEED TO BE OPENED UP AND CHECKED. THE LAQUER PAINT HAS CHECKED ON ONE SIDE. MOST CHROME IS RECHROMED OR NOS. I HAVE A NEW HEADLINER. EQUIPPED WITH FACTORY AIR CONDITIONING, POWER WINDOWS, BRAKES, SEAT, STEERING AND REAR ANTENNAS. WORTH WAY MORE THAN MY RESERVE (WHICH IS ABOUT HALF WHAT I HAVE IN IT) IN PARTS ALONE. TRADE POSSIBLE. PLEASE EMAIL WITH ?S. THANKS.
