    Interior kits should be available for that car. ABC auto upholstery sells reproduction interiors for Fords from 1955-1962. I just looked in Hemmings for the no. and it appears that Lebaron-Bonney has bought them out. The kit we got from them in the 80's was dead on. I don't know the cost of them now, back then for the money it was worth it.

    I don't understand the reason for the post, $7,000 for a car that looks like it needs Zero body work and has a rare body style.

    if this car isnt sitting in his garage yet...than he needs to have his head examined..
    or if he doesent have the coin..than pass it on to a fellow builder, before its forgotten about, again

    7 Grand ? Money well spent. You get a bad ass car that you don't see to many of. Plus, like everyone said, a good buff and a tune up and you are driving !!!

    No Brainer.

    Like I said in one of my first posts, I'm in the process of taking a run at it. But sometimes ya' can't push too hard or seem too eager if ya' know what I mean.

    A hard balance for sure eager versus interested. Better to pay a little more and get it bought than play hard to get and come away with nothing.

    I am into Chevy's but those are the one of FOMOCOs best body styles from the 60's.
    If it is all there and just not running with a really solid body and just needs interior, that is worth the $7000. By comparison I have seen semi-nice regular Ford Galaxie 4 door sedans in the 3000-$4000 range, I almost bought one.
