The bad:
To be a really nice driver/show car, I would have it repainted, it is an older exterior restoration and there are a few bubbles popping up, I do not believe the car is full of bondo, but there are obviously a couple problem areas, the floor pans are good and have been repaired, the truck pan is brand new and professionally done.
The chrome has the usual pitting, I have a spare set of chrome also for the car. There are a couple minor dings, and the car will NEED a cowl hood purchased to clear the intake/carb setup unless someone wants to change the intake!********Pay attention to the comment about the hood, after the head work, cam change and intake swap the factory hood will not clear, it needs a cowl hood, although the car includes the factory hood*********
50-55 invested, I would entertain serious cash offers, no lowball offers!I would consider a LS or Coyote swapped truck from the 50's or 60's or very high end rat rod build. I may consider partial trade ins, preferably a 58/59 apache truck, split bumper Camaro LS swapped only, LS swapped 55-57 Chevy.For more Info email marksessco@aol.com I can provide more pics and videos of it running. The car drives great, AC blows cold, brakes and handling are phenomenal,it is very strong running, I would recommend thebuyer run a DOT slick as traction is a bit of an issue! I can also send a dyno sheet if needed!
