We bought this car in Orlando, FL with 475,000 miles on the odometer from the original owner, a retired Navy man. As we later found out it was held together with chicken wire, bondo, and good intentions. But the car had a rich history beyond it's imperfections. It traveled all across the country, seeing all 50 states thanks in part to the Navy which helped ship it to Hawaii and Alaska, all while towing an airstream trailer behind it.
What followed next was an extensive campaign to resurrect this American classic. A full body restoration and engine and suspension overhaul has led to the beauty you see below.
It won multiple awards and was displayed in car magazines in Holland, where it now resides with our good friend and customer.
