OWNER'S OPINION OF CAR ...
This is not a 100 point car, but it is a very nice older restoration (30 years?). Twenty years in car museum. Paint has minor nicks, chips and imperfections, running board mats are not correct (proper repros. are available).
Chrome is good, but headlights should be replated for show. Fuel gauge does not work (King Seely fluid type). Convertible top has minor discoloration. Interior: door and interior panels are excellent originals, in leather, never redone. Rumble seat is excellent original leather, never re-done. Front seat is newly re-done in leatherette and is virtually identical in the rest of the interior. It is difficult to tell the difference.
