CAR DESCRIPTION FROM SELLER | |
---|---|
Car has been in inside storage for many years soon after previous owner purchased it in 2001. It was being professionally restored and something happened that it didn't get completed. I then purchased the car a few years ago to restore myself but my age and health has prevented that. I pulled the spark plugs and put Marvel Mystery Oil in the cylinders and let it sit for quite a long time before I attempted to start it. I also put a half a quart of Marvel Mystery Oil in the engine and started the car. I let it run for at least half a hour with no knocks and I did not notice any smoke. The engine ran quite well. The exhaust system seems to be good as it was not loud. The engine is a 318 two bbl carb automatic transmission with very quiet dual exhaust. I have not checked the quality of the automatic transmission because I feel it needs to have the fluids drained and filter replaced before any attempt to be used. It has new electronic ignition parts and 2 new front tires. The body needs little to no body work and is about ready for paint. The rear quarter panels are great and I do not know if they were replaced or not but there is no rust or damage on them. What cannot be seen that is missing is: windshield, underdash ac / heating ducts, wiper linkage, and back seat. It does need an upper hinge pin on drivers door as it sags a bit. There are a few parts in the trunk that I do not know where they go. It does not need trunk pans or body floor pans. The only through rust holes that I have seen are a few small holes in the drivers floorboard. What you see in the pictures is what you get. You would be hard pressed to find a body in this good of shape as the car came from dry central Texas. I have title in hand. Buyer pays a non-refundable $500 deposit to Ebay within 48 hrs and cash balance to seller within 10 days. No first time bidders and no under 5 bidders please. Located in a suburb of Houston, TX. Please note:Many antique cars need new wiring harnesses, but this car does not as the wiring is in very good shape. I would love to see this car back on the road asap, and that being said, as I am an automobile electrical guru (retired) with over 50 years of experience, I will help you or guide you through any electrical problems you may have free of charge (labor) for a year. If you are local bring it here or if you are out of town I will guide you over the phone as I love auto electrical work. Happy bidding and thank you. Sorry but I do not know how to do Ebay chat, so please do not ask me to contact you through that. |
