I started it once and drove it about 3 blocks. It has a leak at the carburetor. I
resealed the glass bowl and made a new gasket for it - still leaks. There is a second
Holley carb in the trunk.

Condition:
Drives, but needs restoration
Originality:
Stock, with some updated parts
Accessories included:

Notes:
I obtained the car through default of a tenant that rented a very large storage unit from us.
Tires apparently have NO MILES since the tread area still has the small strands of rubber,
where the "rubber meets the road.".
The windshield is broken above the driver's line-of-sight. Rocker panels have
rust. Front seat cushion is bad.
