1952 On The Side Of The Road

So, I was driving home on the other sided of the state after picking up some parts for the Wife's 55. and Look what I find on the side of the road.

25,000 miles, and the owner has passed. I can walk away for $3500.

Upon further discussion found out they have several various years in their yard along with a 40's wagon. I was told they bought all the parts the old man had which included all kinds of parts and bumpers etc. They claim to have I forget the year car but it was the 19th of the line for the year.

Kunundrum....Do I pay 3500 or let it go for now. Man is is clean and solid..........

Jump on it! Looks like some rechroming and some paint detailing and you'll have a really nice car. Course that assumes that when you put a battery in it that it will start and run. Regardless, it looks like a sweet deal to me.

I'd say so too. If you have the cash, the room, and a wife that won't make you sleep in the car then it looks like something hard to pass up.

I'd say walk away, or better yet run as fast as you can away from it!
Now where did you find this????
All joking aside, look it over real good, ask lots of questions and don't regret your decision.

Is that a Mayfair Coupe? Could be the buy of the season.

BUY IT! Fine looking car!

On a side note, the engine has blue paint on it. So does mine. Where does that come from?

Troy,

If you don't buy it, and if I ever get the pleasure of meeting you in person, I promise I will smack you in the face.

Probably from prior owners who liked blue better than gray.

That's really good-looking car in what appears to be very nice condition. I'm guessing it has had some recent work, I see what appears to be a new core plug.
