THIS AMAZING BARN FIND WAS PARKED IN A GARGAE FOR THE LAST 20 YEARS. IT WAS LAST REGISTERED IN GEORGIA IN 1994 (SEE LICENSE PLATE). THE PREVIOUS OWNER PURCHASED THE CAR FROM GEORGIA AND MOVED IT TO MARYLAND WITH THE INTENTION OF PERFORMING A COSMETIC RESTORATION. THE CAR WAS RUNNING AND DRIVING AT THE TIME. SADLY HE RECENTLY PASSED AWAY AND HE NEVER GOT A CHANCE TO RESTORE IT. WE PURCHASED THE CAR FROM HIS ESTATE. WE WERE TOLD THAT WHEN HE STARTED THE RESTORATION, HE HAD THE RADIATOR REMOVED TO BE BOILED AND CLEANED BUT NEVER SENT OUT. WE HAVE THE RADIATOR, COOLING FAN, PULLY, HOSES, ETC. (SEE PHOTO). THE SEATS, CARPETS, DASH CAP, ETC. WERE DROPPED OFF AT AN UPHOLSTERY SHOP TO BE RESTORED. UNFORTUNATELY, NO ONE KNOWS WERE THESE PARTS ARE CURRRENTLY LOCATED. ALSO, THE TRANSMISSION TUNNEL IS MISSING. THERE MAYBE SOME OTHER SMALL PARTS MISSING.
