Notes:
I bought the car from the original owner's grandson about twelve years ago. Since
then I've installed new front and rear brakes, leaf springs, fuel pump, water pump,
bushings, hoses, battery, shocks, all new gaskets and rebuilt the carburator, master
cylinder and also the shift motor. I have brand new radial tires on the car with
not even 50 miles on them. The car is solid but it does need to be restored. It
is mechanically sound, and it runs and drives. It starts up on the first turn.
