for sale

Price: US $21,000.00

Description:

Hard to Find 1957 Star Chief Convertible, now in the Re-assembly and Buyer Personel Decision stages, that I have protected from the weather and rain for the past 29 years. Buyer has the freedom to determine colors, re-use of old parts or buy new, and the quality of re-assembly. Parts like engine, automatic transmission, and differential have not had a start-up since shop testing and re-assembly. The 347 engine has a Crane 400 H.O. Cam installed and changes to the heads to accomidate. Many new and extra collected parts share boxes with the original cam. Front floors have been replaced leaving metal places to be finished. Purchase parts needed include 2 Convertible Top Cylinders, Top hydraulic pump and hoses. and door panels. The seats are the original with a small tear or two.
Some rust thru in the expected places due to previous exposure to the elements. Extra repair metal panels for the doors comes in a box with other parts. Body metal skin was treated with OSPHO and Self -Etching Primer after removal of old finish. The Donor Parts Car should be a good supply source for many items and metal when you let your body-man do his thing. It should also be an example for Monkey see, monkey do mechanics especially under the hood.
If not evident, you will be buying 2 cars and the removed parts, such as bumpers, fenders, hood, seats, and the remaining parts that will be needed for re-installation to finish the convertible except the needed Top parts mentioned above. This might be a consideration in figuring your shipping plans.
I would really like to see pictures of it when you get it finished. If more detail is needed, call 813-716-6316 during daylight hours.
