Description
I am posting here for my cousin's widow. This car was purchased in 1961 from original owner. It is complete and original. It was put into storage in early 1980s. It was running and driving at the time. Mileage reads 12,000, I imagine it is 120,000 but am not sure. It has suffered heavy corrosion. Although it was sheltered from rain and parked on a tarp on the ground I imagine moisture from summer evaporation in a shelter with no ventilation caused corrosion. I saw the car was sitting on flat tires. I jacked it up and placed blocks under it. I removed the wheels and had used tires put on so the car would roll. The car rims are in bad shape because sitting on the ground and need to be replaced. The frame has heavy corrosion and needs to be restored. The interior is complete but in bad shape. All the glass is good. The passenger door is frozen closed I did not want to force it. It has a hardtop and My cousin's wife tells me the convertible top is there. Very important there is many new boxed parts for restoration that was purchased years ago included. I did notice a new front Corvette emblem. There is the original corvette hubcaps and another set of chevrolet era hubcaps. Car is sold as is. There is a second car also for sale 1955 Chevrolet Belair, hardtop.
