This is by far a great looking, fast, and fun vintage
car. The value will only go up from here
so I regret the need to sell it. My plan
was to finish the restoration (mostly cosmetic at this point) and bring it back
to the original blue color. Paint isn’t
bad but has some scratches. Everything
works on the car as it should although I’m not sure about the heater fan.
I took many underside pics. I only see surface rust and dirt. Everything is solid from what I can tell, although appears damage of
some sort was repaired on one of the rocker panels (see pic).
I’ll do my best to schedule inspections and test
drives. I’ll end the auction early if we
come to an agreement.
Car is located near Boyertown, PA. Antique tag is transferable to new owner if
in PA. No inspection or recurring
registration fees required.
