I've owned this car for close to 30 years. I decided to part with it. If you go back to some of my posts I had a 7 year debacle with the running boards. All squared away and attended a few shows as well. Frame off restoration and I don't think there was any hardware not glass beaded and painted. Rust free with the exception of some pin holes in the rear body panel over the tailpipe.
This car is not my coupe of tea, but a beautiful example of what great restoration can do to make the car like new.
Very well done, and I was impressed with the side video showing NO wobbly leg reflections - example of attention to detail.
Good luck on your sale.
I'm sure if it were mine, I would be very sad to see it go after so many years.
As I started out saying, not a car for me, but the car seems very good for the price.
Have fun,
Steve B.

Just to clarify, the amount shown is only the current bid.

definitely bitter sweet. I spent 100's of hours on the car and parts alone cost more than the reserve. I hope someone will buy it and enjoy. I have had a few private comments that is a good place to start building a street rod. That would be really sad for me.
She's beautiful, Al. Hopefully someone will respect her!
