1963 buick electra convertible want to buy

I have a '63 convertible I'm considering selling. Runs and drives great. Top is like new and operates perfect. Interior is fine, no tears or dash cracks, etc. I changed out the rug when I first got it and noticed some rust through in the floors. I bought replacement pans and rockers, but I had no urgent plan to install them. Also had the radiator recored, did the front brakes, and have the parts for rears. I sent out the carb to be rebuilt as even though the car ran fine, I wanted to make sure the accelerator pump was as E85 proof as possible. It has a 20 foot paint job and looks good enough to get plenty of thumbs up. It's an older repaint of the factory color.

It's a fun car and I'm only thinking of selling it to make room for another car I'm in the process of purchasing. It's a driver to just go in or a project if you want to detail the engine compartment, redo the floors and strip/paint it.

Picture attached. Let me know if you're interested.

Thanks!

Here's some pics of the floor when I pulled the rug out. Not terrible, like I said. The rug I put in is the right color and is a pile rather than loop in the correct color. Also replaced the fuel pump and water pump. I wanted to just be able to drive it without any worries.

 

I can get some pictures of the underside Monday as I store it inside where I work.
