Notes:
Purchased from an estate sale.  Clean title.  This was a Southern Colorado car and wasn't eaten up by road salt like a lot of Northern cars were.  Engine was rebuilt but it doesn't appear to have been started.  The radiator is in the back seat.  No plug wires or balancer.  No keys.
At some point someone put a floor shifter in but it is gone and the 2X3 hole will need to be patched.  Otherwise this body is pretty good.  The interior will need to be completely redone.  Not all parts are here - No hub caps, light grills, or the fixtures the grills sit in, and a few other things I'm sure.  The car has had the carpet removed and a few pieces of glass are cracked.
