Features & Equipment:
Current Condition: This was restored approximately 10-15 years ago and still looks amazing. ou can tell it’s always been a very nice car its entire life. The ebony black paint shines beautifully. The body is laser-straight, with just a few minor spots of paint crazing (on the hood, near the rear glass, and on the trunk) that are barely noticeable. This would be an easy fix if you desire, or you could leave it alone as it has just the right amount of patina for a stunning, original look. The fit and finish on the car are spectacular.
The glass and trim are all in wonderful condition, and new rubber seals have been installed to keep the car weather-tight. All the chrome was redone and shines like a diamond.

There is one small wear spot on the back of the front seat the size of a quarter. ou could repair it with a new piece of material from SMS or leave it as part of the patina. The dash and gauge cluster look like jewelry, with all lights and gauges working as they should. All the painted woodgrain was restored and looks amazing. A hidden AM/FM Bluetooth stereo system provides modern convenience without sacrificing the vintage look.
Mechanically, the car is in excellent condition, with the 346 cubic inch Flathead V8 running smoothly and the Hydra- c transmission shifting effortlessly.
