Car history:
Sold thru ProTeam in the past.

A December of 1957 build-date. We're not sure how the car was optioned from the factory. It is a hardtop-only car, optioned with the heater and wonderbar radio. 4.11 posi rear diff and Borg-Warner T-10 transmission. It's all there and intact.
The car came to me with a solid-lifter 327 that grenaded itself. I then had a 283 built with dual-four barrels. This engine was overbuilt with a very hot cam. The engine was not-streetable and constantly overheating. In wanting a true driver I went with a fuel-injected L-98.
The car turns over every time and runs reliably and FAST! I was in the process of rebuilding the 283 block and it was STOLEN out of my garage! I still have the Carter carbs but everything else is gone.

In 2000 I had a body-off done. The frame was sandblasted and powdercoated. The kingpins were rebuilt. There were new shocks on all four corners and new springs, too. There was a new stainless-steel exhaust installed. I have around $12,000 in receipts for all this work (and some pictures.) The carpet was replaced too. I couldn't afford a repaint at the time. The numbers on the frame match the numbers on the VIN tag.

The car is in good shape overall. The seats are original and intact. The carpet is new. It's solid. It runs, drives and stops.

What's Wrong. I removed the dash pad. The one installed was rotted and the wrong color. The car needs paint. The plastic covers for the taillights, front emblem and rear emblem are original and therefore crazed.
