   I bought this sedan a couple years ago and had it shipped to me in southern Maine. A very nice looking car that had new brakes and nice radial tires. The body is OK but the lower portion of the trunk lid needs some repair because of rust out. I really bought it with good intentions. I liked the style with the rear suicide doors ETC!
I drove the car around the block and it ran fine. It has been sitting for a couple years after the one mile drive I registered it and it sat. Have a title & original rims and hub caps.
    I am not really interested in keeping it so it is up for sale $ 6,000. It ran beautiful.
I can only e-mail pictures My pictures are from e-mail they are not on my computer. Send me a e-mail to coupe33_me@yahoo.com if there is any interest.
If the car does not sell it will still have to be put out. I have too many cars and have sold 3 but I still do not have enough room in my shop/barn. This is a solid price it also has a new electric harness.
     T really do not want to put it out but I will entertain offers before it turns into a field car?

     I installed a new 6 volt battery and restarted the car. It really runs nice and I drove it around the neighborhood it is smooth and just needs a restoration. The body was mentioned before it needs a good cleaning new head lining and trunk repair. As of today it is still a good running car that will be a field car so before the first winter hits I would like to see it gone. Last post on the car.

Is there any rust inside the trunk? With a rusted trunk lid, it seems like the rear of the trunk floor might be as well.
Has the wiring harness been installed?
I'm not interested in buying, just looking for clarification for those who might be.

      Just for clarification: The harness id still sitting on the back seat. There is no rust in the trunk. I have sent multiple pictures and generally I do not get a reply. I have shown all the negatives on the car! I have no reason to sell but to find someone to save it.
     I have way too many cars mostly Hot Rod projects no stocker's. The car is no longer in a heated barn it is under a shed roof attached to the barn along with a 34 Ford truck and a 32 Ford truck outside is a 26 Ford coupe HR a 28 Ford coupe a 53 Chevy coupe a 54 Pontiac coupe a 57 Chevy 2 door sedan. In the barn are 2 1933 Ford coupes a 5 window and a 3 window both are Hot Rods in the making. I will part it out if necessary but I have seen way too many needing an engine and body work for way more money.
