Notes:
The correct tires are bias-ply wide white walls, new 2 years ago, and only have about 300 miles on them.  I put in a new battery last Fall, and the radiator was replaced with a new one about a year and a half ago.  The car is insured, registered and on the road.  Car has original paint, interior and even the spare is original to the car.  This car only has 17,383 original miles!  Payson Auto Sales was an Edsel dealer and the car was purchased new at that location.  The only thing I know it will need is the two rear mufflers are starting to get a bit noisy, they will need to be replaced.  Sometimes the one passenger rear door sticks and the passenger door sometime doesn't latch right away, takes a couple of tries.  There is a slight carpet wear in the back on one side, and the woman who owned the car wore high heels that dug into the carpet on the driver's side in one spot.

If you value originality, you will be impressed with this car.  There has been no paint work done, anywhere.  It's all original paint.  Chrome is original, too.  It's all very nice and quite rare.
I do know the history of the car.  It was purchased by a woman in Utah.  She used it until she couldn't drive anymore and it was put in storage for quite awhile.  The second owner brought the car to the state of Washington, drove it for about 1,000 miles and then placed it in a museum.  The museum closed and the cars were sold.  I bought it from that individual, so I am the 3rd owner.  It's registered and titled here in New York State.
