This was a complete resto job taking the car down to the metal and then working on the frame from front to back i.e ball joints, tie rod ends, frame cleaned and painted, shocks I could go on and on I think that photos tell a very good story. The car has a complete hot rod wiring harnesses all bulbs were changed out as the old ones were 6 volt, the old vacuum wiper motor was changed to a elect one, battery is mounted in the trunk next to spare tire, the clock was reworked to a quartz movement 12 volt, The builder wanted the old look but with some new upgrades like keeping the old radio knobs in place but using a Hidden Audio unit in the old battery box, you control the radio thru a fm remote that works great, he replaced both front and rear speakers w/ stereo speakers that would play thru the old footprints from the stock location of the speakers, all dash was rebuilt and numbers changed out. The total build time on this fine lady is well over 18 months and a cost well we will go into that later.

Here are some quick car show notes: Only 2,994 were made, selling price was $3,625.00 (sorry it will not sell for that price) weight 4,155lbs, the builder of this fine ride is a very good buddy and this guy can do just about any thing he puts his mind to, the car comes with a complete build book to included photos, build sheets, receipts, how to fix things and as always a chance to talk to the builder after you have brought your next stock market item, I know it’s a car but you will never lose on this stock.

If you like to see her in a magazine photo, pick up Rod & Custom September issue page 114

NADA puts this car at over $27,000.00 but please we are not going to give the car away it will take a few more bucks to get this one in the garage. If you collect cars then you know what a ride like this will go for at Barrett Jackson or any other high end auction, the builder is ready to move on to new rides but he does not mine keeping her right in the garage if the price is not right. Please call and make an offer we have open trailers for shipping with a fee or have numbers for enclosed trailers (Nevada)
