This is a ground up restored from a very fussy restorer/collector. It is very well sorted and drives great! Actually the owner had it taken to a shop on its way to Volo and spent $1,100 having it inspected, new fluids, tune up etc. Has all the popular 50s style custom features. EXTERIOR: Has a gorgeous dark plum metallic paint. It looks black until the sun hits it. The reflection is like a mirror. Body is arrow straight, fits nice.... Doors and hood click shut. The power convertible top is a rich German black cloth with red edges. It also has glass rear window. Up front it has a custom 54 Pontiac grill.
