Condition is very good. This car has just been gone over and the following work was done:
- Oil pan dropped and cleaned out and new gaskets installed
- New oil pump installed (old one comes with the car... filter screen was going bad)
- Distributor rebuilt: new points, cap, rotor, and condenser
- Fuel pump rebuilt with ethanol proof diaphragm
- Carburetor rebuilt (new throttle shaft and plate, acc. pump honed, rebuild kit
- New 6v battery
- Electrolock ignition switch rebuilt
All the work done was with quality parts and expertise, no shortcuts taken. The engine runs good, its doesn't smoke and holds a great, smooth clock like idle...
Starts easily and has great throttle response. Brakes work great as does the parking brake. Headlights work (both high/low beam), interior dome lights works, fuel gauge works, ammeter and oil pressure gauge work. Odometer/speedometer works great, all doors open and shut fine, glass is good, no cracks. Tires are OK but older and should be replaced if you intend to drive this all the time. Nice interior that shows some wear (mostly lower kick panels) but is still very comfy. License plate does not come with the car.
This car has an adjustable front seat and is very comfy for a tall person to drive. I'm 6'2" and am very comfortable inside the cab.
Issues:
- The horn doesn't currently work, it was working but has now stopped (trouble shooting)
- There is a small leak in the radiator, 1-2 drops a night sometimes.. very small.
- Temp sender does not work
- Windshield wiper is not working (rebuild kit available for $14)
- One small rust spot on the lower right cowl (see picture)
Its a nice older restoration that's held up pretty good, no bondo in the car. Comes with a vintage jack, grease gun, rim tool, lug nut wrench, tire patch kit and tool, spare axle, and several manuals/parts books.
