I have taken pictures to show the under side of this car for you to see. the windshield has a crack in it.all the side glass is in good condition. the body looks nice and has some small wrinkles here and there. this would make a nice patina cruzer. put your engine in and drive it like it is.the 3 speed over drive transmission is still bolted in the car. in the back I see the radiator, shrowd, looks like a v8 and a 6 cly bellhousings, generator and a box of bolts, motor mounts, fa, etc. she can not find the key to the car so we can t roll the window down to get better pics of the parts.she says she will keep looking? we put what looks like to be some orignal tires, wheels and hub caps that he had stored in his basement for this car. so there you have it. look at the pictures, ask questions if needed. there is no reserve on this auction. the car will sell to the highest bidder.out of country bidders are welcome to bid. this is an absolute auction. theres no warranty implied. the car is being sold as where is.
