It has the dated coded correct numbers matching block with many correctly dated parts. The car has been stored properly and driven only 25 miles since the restoration It is in excellent condition throughout and it looks beautiful in this rare, one year only color combination. The excellence of the restoration also extends to it mechanically, as well as the cosmetics. It runs and drives just as a ’55 should. It also comes with the unrestored but very good condition side curtains and case. This will be a great car for a special collection and will be fun to get judged at some major car shows.
