VEHICLE HISTORY/
PROJECT STATUS:
p


Seller had several 48-5's. Originally would not part sell, but his big deal fell apart. He acquired from friend, who got from (original?) owner, he personally knew,while living in GA. It's very complete but you couldn't tell that looking at it in the field at time of purchase. Even the muffler and tailpipe is intact. Paperwork in at state for title. Poorly stored outdoors, unprotected, field location. Tires down. Door glass cracked. But ranges from nearly new condition in some parts to rotted out in others.

pRadiator being checked, it was hit on bottom and recored, but the lower hose was rotted, and I couldn't tell where it leaked. Wiring is eat u
from critters and insulation toasty. Interior was ate up, but enough there to for patterns. Floor pans are solid but will need 6-8% replaced/repaired. Master cyl is froze but parking brake works. Motors turns, was running when went to field. Next ste
repair as necessary to see if it'll start, get running/road worthy.

pSending out parts for chrome and powder coat was I dissassemble and blast/clean. Started exploratory work to assess needs. Mostly dents and surface rust but some holes on the lower portion

pGotta love that two side opening clamshell hood. What an invention!
