My intention was to keep this car forever and enter it in NCRS events but life issues are forcing me to sell. It runs and drives amazingly well. It does not run hot. It isn't perfect (it's 50 years old after all) but is certainly one of the nicest ones around. I have bought and sold numerous vehicles on EBAY and want the buyer to be happy with the car. Please message with questions. You may also call or text me at 641 569 3045.
The car is listed with NO RESERVE! The high bidder will own it. Thank you and good luck!!
