Hi Indetrucks

Welcome! That '48 Deluxe Eight club sedan appears to be one of the most nicely preserved originals that's turned up for sale in a while. Whether its worth the price or some figure near that depends upon how good it is mechanically and physically as well as how much one prizes factory original condition.

What's observable in the photos is the need to stabilize the paintwork, possibly blend some new finish on the top surfaces to prevent further deterioration. To determine how well or poorly preserved are the other aspects and systems should be done in person.

Many forum participants here are far more familiar with this series than I and stand by willing to help with your condition assessment and price evaluation. Please let us know what you discover when you investigate this car in person.
