The '39 seats seem odd. Looks like it has a center "seat" seam like a car from the 80's or some modern sedan back seats.

A 1949 22nd Series Eight, "Clean NJ title, no key, chrome trim not available, hardly any rust, odometer: 73,000. $1,400 - Montville, NJ (201) two-6-4-6-nineteen-4."

It appears to be an abandoned project left at a body & paint shop.

Hope someone picks that up quick. That's a $10k interior.

Agreed, that's a buy it as a parts car just for the interior!

17k "invested"

Reminds me of this one I saw at the Hershey car corral. The car had clearly sat outside for some time as there was mildew and streaks on the paint. Good original interior but nothing to write home about. I was checking it out with Ross and another friend and we were blown away by the supposed cost. 😂

I don't understand how it takes 80 grand to drop a $2000 Hornet body on a $3000 plus basic repairs 97 Caprice. As a reminder, Ross will build a Packup for only about half that. With paint too.
