1931 Chevy Coupe HOT ROD RAT ROD CUSTOM CLASSIC

1931 Chevy 5 Window Coupe. has has around 10. 00 miles on it. hand built as my personal vehicle over the last 6 years.  The ALL Steel unchopped body was very straight & in great condition when I got her.  The only reason I am selling my coupe is because I was fortunate enough to find my dream car "51 Merc Woodie" and I need more money to start that project!!  I encourage anyone to contact me prior to bidding with any questions.  I have been building/buying/restoring & selling hot rods since I was big enough to reach the fender with a sander.  This is a rare one and will keep a smile on your face every time you turn the key.
