George Albright Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 I bought it to make sure it was saved,restored,and loved. I have done this numerous times to protect cars. I paid $1,500 for it 3 months ago,and $450 to ship it from Kentucky to my home in Ocala,Fla. where it currently sits. Car and frame solid but sheet metal inside is rusted and needs replacing. Easy and cheap,and simple. Basically complete minus seats and a plexiglass windshield. I comes with a new Kentucky title,and an original photo of the car for restoration purposes. The chassis is all Crosley with a Crosley engine,trans,etc.Also comes with its 1963 Orange National Show trophy,given in San Bernardino,Calif. Car was built in nearby Fontana. The show started in 1911 and was a major automobile show in the 1960s. Please help me find someone who will take care of it. Price is what I paid for it,$1,950 firm. More photos for interested parties.
