This car runs and drives. We found it behind an old auto shop and brought it back to life. We went through the brakes and installed new shoes, heel cylinders, ardware kit, acked front wheel bearings with new seals. Then we installed a new starter, ew battery tray and had new cables built. We dropped the gas tank and washed out the gunk with industrial cleaner and reinstalled with a new sending unit. We rebuilt the original teapot carburetor. Finally, e went through the ignition system which included new points, ondenser, otor and coil. Odometer shows 70,843 miles but buyer should assume the actual mileage is higher because we have no way of documenting these are actual miles.
We decided not to paint the car so the new owner could decide whether to keep it this way or customize it to his/her liking. This would make a great car to take to a drive-in or car show just as it is. Or you could paint it satin black and drop some 17" wheels on it and slam it to the ground. It is a great platform for modifications.
