This car had the benefit of a body off restoration, body panels were
stripped from old paint and professionally restored & refinished.
Two tone paint scheme, body is dark red and the fenders a dark maroon
with silver painted pinstripes on the belt lines. The wheels are also
painted in maroon with silver painted pinstripes.
The body was separated from the frame & sandblasted, primed &
refinished in chassis black. Undercarriage was also cleaned &
refinished. Engine bay components are in excellent condition and have
been primed & painted.
Front bumper, grille, ornaments, headlight housings, tail light
housings, rear bumper, trim moldings, hub caps, handles and window
surround frames have been re-plated or renewed and are in excellent
condition.
Windows are clear, all glass is free of chips, cracks & scratches.
The complete interior has been professionally renewed. Light grey
Bedford cord cloth was used to recover the seats, door panels & side
panels, a new headliner was also manufactured from the same material.
New carpets were installed along with new wind cords and sill plates.
The original engine was rebuilt at the time of restoration, all other
original mechanical components were renewed, rebuilt or refurbished.
There are a couple of door edging chips. The running board rubbers have
cracks. The new owner will likely want to detail the paint etc as this
beauty has been in storage since Dec 2003.
This car is stunning and will look forward to the new owner driving her.
She runs well & can be driven anywhere.
