This is the tail end of a 2-year $50,000 body-off, every-nut-and-bolt restoration. Every
moving part has been rebuilt or replaced including hte engine, transmission, differential,
steering, etc. The car will start right up and drive as is. The body is rust-free
and laser straight. The car needs the final finishing assembly work done. I have
everything to finish the car, including redone upholstery, trim, door panels, new glass,
etc. Most all work has been done.
(Bids went to $11,100, but the reserve was not met)

dealership promotional car, so it was loaded with options.
