This is an excellent condition. awesomely maintained car. It is the top-of-the-line model for 1950. I have owned it for 7 years. It has NEVER had a mechanical failure/breakdown. I drive it a couple times a week to and from work. run errands. generally cruise. whatever. It starts and drives like it should 100% of the time. If you buy this car and something goes wrong mechanically. you can come back to my house and punch my face.
As a hobby. I build vintage motorcycles and keep 60 year old Harleys and Triumphs going. so this car is a welcome break from the repair those things require. I'm selling this car because I bought an amazing 1935 Ford Coupe. But it wasn't cheap. So here this is despite the fact that I want to keep it.   
Usually when I sell an old bike. I want to avoid selling to people that haven't owned vintage motorcycles before because they require frequent maintenance. That's not the case here. Just keep the oil changed/clean and you're fine. Are you a 16 year old chick? Your first car? Go for it!   
Are you like that guy that tried to buy one of my old bikes and were surprised that you had to kick start it? I know you were embarrassed in front of your trophy girlfriend when I deduced that you confused "electronic ignition" with "electric start". But don't worry dude. this car has both! You're solid! So solid.
The car is available for viewing and test rides in Huntington Beach. CA.  
What I've done to the car to make it awesome;
The paint was professionally applied by a pro body shop 3 years ago. It has been color sanded smooth. The paint literally feels like warm butter if you drag your finger across it. There are no dents or scratches. The body was straight as an arrow before and there is no filler in the car. Go ahead and feel behind panels. bring a felt covered magnet. whatevs. People constantly compliment the car for its looks. But as a first. a dude hollered at me in traffic and insisted I give him my body shop number because of how well the paint presents itself.  
The gauge and clock are out of the same year Ford Woody. Stock is all black and boring. New wiring harness. From headlight to tail light 12 volt system. New 1-wire 12V generator/alternator from Speedway (yeah the $400 one)New Motor mountsNew fuel pumpDrilled and slotted disc brakes up front. Car stops A M A Z I N GNew rear brake shoesRebuilt tranny. all new seals. new clutch. throwout bearing. etc. True dual stainless exhaustCeramic coated headersAll new shocksNew plugs. wires. electronic ignition strobed and timed perfectly idles like clockworkNew Holley Carbs. balanced to the same vacuum Fresh correct engine paintStainless hardwareNew water pumpsPolished Vintage Edmunds 2 Carb intake manifoldOffenhauser Cylinder HeadsInterior 2 years old with some super expensive plush carpet I got talked into. 1940 Ford 16" Limeworks steering wheelRe-chromed the stock grille with triple chrome platingAll new glass and weather sealsLowered 3" up front with proper lowering coilsCustom rear leaf spring package with teflon wear pads and new bushingsAluminum Briz bumpers (stock are available with the car. chrome isn't great there)New 16 gallon polyurethane gas tankDuromat used on the floor under carpet

The list of things that might be on your list of weekend activities to address with the car.
I replaced the speedo cable and the speedo/odo functioned for a couple weeks. then stopped. No idea why. maybe cheap aftermarket cable? I think I didn't lube it. but I didn't care to pursue it.
The gas gauge reads about 1/2-3/4 when completely full. So the sender may need adjusting. Access in trunk. E still means E so you're good there. Oil pressure and temp work fine.
Radio doesn't work.
2 small holes in the driver door for a mirror. I didn't have them filled because I thought I wanted to run a mirror. I didn't.
I think that's about it. If you have questions. just ask.
  

<------ Link to the car running. It was a little cold out and had condensation coming out of the exhaust. That's not smoke.
