The original owner wrote everything down on a little notepad with every oil change and work done from the first change at 15 miles to64,013 miles (granted, it is not the original block anymore, just super cool tohave). I have tons of receipts dating back to when the car was new and a listof each owner. I have several old registrations dating back to the 70s and 80s.Car was bought new on 4/19/62 in Bedford Indiana and moved to Seattle in thesummer of ’73. Changed a few hands until I bought it about 4 years ago.
Previous owner owned a paint and body shop. Took 164.5 hoursto strip and repaint the car. I have the hour sheet from the restoration shop.I have some photos of the progress from stripping it to bare metal to color(also included in the sale). This was done sometime around January and Februaryof 95 or 96. It still looks super nice! A couple bubbles about the size of adime are starting to show and some on the seams on the sides of the rear windowbut those are not thru. Everyone that I point them out to tell me it’s hardlyeven noticeable. I am OCD when it comes to my cars, so every imperfectionstands out to me. Floor board is not rusty nor is the trunk area. It’s a VERY solidcar. Had this on Kent Sullivan’s lift acouple years ago and got lots of “nice car” comments.
I only put ethanol free super unleaded in thecar as well. I’ve put less than 1500 miles on the car since everything listednew has been rebuilt or installed. Car could use new seat covers and doorpanels. I was going to order an interior kit from Clarks but have otherinterests I would rather stick that money into. Has an aftermarket radio in itwith Bluetooth that is mounted in the factory radio location (had it cut out),but have an original bezel that is not cut up if you’d like to put a factorystyle 2 knob back in it. The windshieldhas a mark from the drivers’ side wiper blade, it may be buffable but I want tomention it. Anytime I take the car out it get lots of attention. It shows verynicely as is, I just want to mention everything I am aware of. I only have onekey for it, but everything including the glove box is keyed the same. Car has WashingtonState 62 collector plates on it as well. I barely drive this car, maybe 3 timesa year. Would rather it go to someone that appreciates it and drives it moreoften. If I can answer any questions or you are interested in seeing it pleasefeel free to contact me. I am in the Arlington WA area if you want to come lookat it. I’d rather not drive it in the rain, so please keep that in mind.
