I hate to sell it but I'm building a shop and need the cash.
I bought this 46 covertible with the plans of making a killer lead sled but reality says build the car or build the shop and right now I really need the shop badly.
This vert is pretty much complete except for the hood and seats. I've got boxes and boxes of trim nuts bolts and washers. The last owner planned to restore it (see first 2 pix) arout '76 and never got it done. It's been stores out of weather conditions since then. This spring I bought it and brought it to the Okanagan ( desert dry) and it is as you see it.
The hard to find parts are there too, including the roof hardware and both vacuume cylinders for the roof. Presently the body is sitting on the frame and pipes have been tack welded in the door frames to keep its shape.
The floors are generally pretty good but yes there is patch work needed and replacement parts are readily available.
The flat 6 motor turns over freely and is complete. I can provide current B.C. registration for it.
