New owner may have trophies won by this car.

note:

The speedometer does not work and have not taken the time to figure it out.

The tires are the original tires put on at the time of the restoration. They are B. F. Goodrich 7.60-15 wide whitewall bias.


The car drives great, but the brakes

do need adjustment as it will pull to the right since I pulled it out of storage.
This vehicle has only been driven 6111 miles since restoration.

There appears to be some oil leakage underneath. Not sure, it could be the rear main, but a car needs to be driven and that will straighten out with use.

It has the original oil filter. When we did the restoration we wanted to keep it as near to original as possible.

This would be a perfect gift for the man who has everything!!!!!

Please give me a call if you have questions. I can answer you faster this way.
