VEHICLE HISTORY/ PROJECT STATUS: | The car was traded into a car dealer back in 1986 in St. Cloud, MN. The dealer parked it out back in the field and left it there along with several other cars. Sometime around 25ish The trees that had grown u around all the cars were taken down and the cars removed along with this one. The new owner cleaned the carb a bit, filed the points and poured in some new gas and the Clipper roared to life. The car was sold at a swa meet in St. Cloud in 26ish and brought to Buffalo, MN where it sat inside in storage until I bought it in Feb 28. I plan to make it into an enjoyable driver. Reliable and safe are the two biggest goals and appearance will come later. It's not my intention to create a show car. I would like to kee it as original as possible, but I'm not religious about it, I'll take function over form most of the time. | ||||
