VEHICLE HISTORY/
PROJECT STATUS:
Purchased from a father-son pair who ran an auto repair sho
for several decades. Haven't verified this, but the seller said it was originally from Texas, then made its way to New Jersey, and was finally shipped to Ohio, where they took ownership. So I suspect I'm the 4th owner.



Found running and largely solid, but with some significant problems. Driver's and front passenger's floor boards are rusted through. Original fuel tank, while complete, has a huge hole cut in it courtesy of a transportation company that "needed to make sure" there was no fuel in the car. Guess they missed the factory drain plug. Ran off a 5-gallon tank tucked in the engine bay, drove fine, and felt solid. Body and frame are in good shape, with largely cosmetic rust and all trim present and in good condition.
