Notes:
RM Auctions, as reported in Special Interest Auto:
"A decent car upon first inspection, it went down hill from there.  Steering wheel had been cut down to a 2/3 circle, unusual gauge cluster added in center, and under the hood everything was spray painted black.  Equipped with power steering and brakes, 1958 style radio and Dial-Temp heater-defroster.  Complete exterior color change that complimented the interior quite well.  No signs of rust out or major metal maladies, but the seller's story was suspect.  Overall condition 3, bid to $24,000 no sale.  We really didn't see anyone with their hand in the air for this car, and if there had been this money in the room, it would've been a gift from Above for this example.  Anything in the high teens wouldn't have been disgraceful, and with a couple of thousand and a new steering wheel, it had potential."
