This is a restoration project started but not completed by a financially distressed collector. Much mechanical work has been done. including the professional rebuilding of the engine and transmission.   The project was in the replacement with new ash all the structural wood from the sills to the roof.   One rear window was fitted before the project was halted for lack of funding.   All windows are new and would be fitted to their positions as the next phase.   Glass has been cut and installed into risers. but not yet installed into body and doors.

Missing are the running boards. and some small parts. including the hood spears.   Many - almost most- of the other parts are stored but go with the car. and would be included in the sale.

With engine and transmission rebuilt. and wood structural framing redone. the hardest  and most expensive parts of the restoration are now complete. Some body work (including making running boards) remains. but the body has been blasted and there is virtually no plastic in the car to date.

This is a wonderful body style. made even more rare because they were often lost as parts for the convertable models.   Now that the most critical aspects of this restoration are complete. the uncertainty of completion is diminished as a risk to investment.

We will add pictures and notes as auction develops. or you can call (413) 519-3071 regfarding any aspect of the car. payment. and/or delivery.
