Nice looking car at a reasonable price and there is the opportunity to make it just a little bite nicer. A car that you can drive and enjoy while tinkering with it. GLWTS

It’s in a town well known for one of the world’s best restoration shops………I’m certain I have friends familiar with the car. Basically a free pre war ride in decent condition. How can you go wrong?

I just noticed that this car has been altered a little where the rear fenders attach to the body. There is no welting there and where the welting should be, this has been filled in. Buyer should look underneath this car and in the trunk to see how this was done. All filler?????
