This car had a ground up restoration in progress around 1970. The restoration project was put on hold and the entire project was in storage for forty years. In 2007 it was completely assembled and a full listing of any rust. on-original parts etc. was compiled. the engine is original and was rebuilt in 1968;it has not been cranked since 1970. This is a fine example of an original 1940 Chevrolet built with pride in the USA and well protected from the elements and Rat Rodders. In 2008 the car was appraised at $14. 00 in its present condition (not running) due to its being complete and original. This car has been in the present owners possession since 1965. The price of this vehicle is $15. 00 which is negotiable within reason. A complete listing of missing and /or. on original parts along with rust spots is available upon request. Buyer responsible for pickup and shipping.
