Concerns or blow-offs

I am an excellent mechanic, but I’m no bodyman. I am pretty good with a MiG welder tho. The front interior floor sections, some trunk floor areas and any other body rust-thru has all been cut out and replaced with metal from other 1956 Cadillac doors and fenders. The entire body was taken down to bare metal, epoxy primed and painted with oil-based enamel with activator and hardener. All I can say about my paint and bodywork is the car will not rust.

A couple of soft body mounts (mid cabin)

Speedometer does not work and is disconnected, but another good speedometer is included

Front tires rub when cranked to limit

Drivers side door window is cracked (flat glass)

Also Included if you arrange for shipping: 2 super-straight doors, 2 nice front fenders, 2 hoods, 1 trunk lid, rear differential, complete clean front and rear seat springs and parts, front suspension & steering parts

Included anyways: grills and grill pieces, new brake drums and shoes, controls, switches, tons of chrome trim, front and rear windshields, rear 1/4 windows and frames and a mountain of other parts that I've amassed over the years.

Paint and body would make this car a show-stopper, or keep the cash in your jeans and enjoy as-is. She’s never been turned away from a car show and I get thumbs up every time I roll !! If you have questions or need more pictures, please ask. The opening bid meets reserve and very fairly represents the cars condition. Please bid only if you have ALL required permissions....I'll work with you with shipping and paperwork. Good luck, eh!
