    Good luck with the sale and the new shop. Wish I could afford what this car deserves. Although the current bid $4.25 is probably doable. Lol good luck.
     
  2. The initial listing ended at 57k without meeting the reserve. Good luck!

    I'm in the car restoration business (25 years now) , so I'm a detail guy. There are not many cars that look as good in person as in pictures , and I've gotta say, this wagon blew me away. Fantastic details and great fit and finish everywhere. As a guy who sees what it takes to make a car this nice ... It's worth every penny of that IMHO .

    No , he's not paying me to say that , ha-ha !

    Thank you , at times it's hard for most people to see all that fine detail but very refreshing when someone actually gets it and understand it .

    The OP was interested in Truck Arms. Here's a video with Junior Johnson and his 1963 Impala SS which was the first use of them. 63 Impala Truck Arms junior johnson.jpg
