Strong points:
Virtually no missing pieces. The fenders, doors, hood, and trunk lid are in excellent shape. There are small amounts of surface rust on the underside of the flat hood with no rot or damage. The fenders also have small amounts of surface rust but no rot or damage. The frame is solid back to the very rear by the bumper cross support. The floors and trunk are very solid with very little rust. The grille is complete however, their are 3 cracks in total all located in the upper mounting tabs.
The interior is complete. Most of the panels are in reusable condition with very little scuffing and no cracking.
No visible cracks or chips in any of the glass.
Areas of concern:
The rear frames by the cross support for the bumpers will need to be replaced. The trunk floor extensions have pin holes. The lower quarters and wheel lips will need replacing as someone previously tried to install repair panels. Drivers side rocker panel will need repaired/replaced
Dash pad is cracked, front bench seat needs refurbished. The engine runs but will need maintenance and maintenance parts. The engine has a 1-barrel carburetor and older replacement cap and wires.
Needless to say, 40+ years without a rebuild or tune up means that the car is not roadworthy in it's current state. The car drives but has some trouble staying running at idle. At this point in time, I do not feel it is worthwhile for myself to improve on the condition/performance of the engine since I am undecided about its future plans if the car does not sell. In listing this car I am giving the opportunity to someone else to devote the time and attention to the project. Otherwise, the car will go into storage until I personally find the time for it.
Warranty:
Their is no warranty on this vehicle. The car has a clear PA title. It is your responsibility to ask questions in regards to any concerns you have prior to bidding and/or purchasing.
Shipping:
The vehicle is located in SE PA close to the PA/MD state line. Zip code 17563. The vehicle is accessible to nearly any truck and trailer combination. I can deliver the vehicle for a fee within a reasonable distance on a case-by-case basis. I will not try and gouge you with an insane amount of money per mile, but my time is valuable. I'd rather not deliver the vehicle but would do so if necessary. If interested in my delivery services, you MUST inquire and agree to terms BEFORE bidding and/or purchasing.
Ask questions. Solid project.
This would be a good project for a person with intermediate or higher experience pertaining to automotive repair and restoration. Beginner or novice persons would more than likely require extra time and support to complete to any varying degree. If not looking to restore the car, the value of usable parts as a donor is excellent.
The car is listed locally. However, I will NOT pull the car within 48 hours prior to auctions end or if the reserve is met at any time.
I've been restoring Mopars for 20 years as a side profession. I will provide you with honest answers as quickly as possible. I am highly interested in the heritage and preservation of Mopars, as well as the education of current and future generations of enthusiasts.
