Equipment
305 Chevy V-8, Turbo 350 automatic, 9 inch Ford rear axle, coilover rear suspension, 4-inch front axle drop, heater, aluminum radiator, dual circuit hydraulic brakes.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
An intriguing Rustomod that has scroungy old paint clearcoated to protect it and a lot of rust. The upholstery is rudimentary. The equipment described, however, is thoughtful and practical. Flat-towed behind it is a Model A-based jalopy race car in even more appalling condition. It’s said to run and start. No mention of brakes.
Market commentary
An instant historic racing equipe after working on the jalopy. There is nothing competitive about either vehicle but the combination is charming and would make a statement parked at a local short track or on the Bonneville Salt. The value is in the eye and imagination of the beholder.
