Have you ever dreamed of owning a baby bird?  Typically, these cars are either very expensive once restored or need so much work that repairs put the end cost around owning a restored one.  For your consideration is something right in the middle.  This is a very good, running and driving car.  Below I will do my best to describe the condition of the car.

 

Mechanical:

The 312 Yblock cracks to life with a touch of the key.  The drivetrain in this car is fabulous.  Running with LOTs of power, the 312 starts easy, idles nice, runs VERY STRONG, stays cool and sounds great.  The transmission shifts firm and nice.  The car stops and handles as it should.  The intake has been upgraded to the 1957 style and fitted with a brand new 600 CFM Holley 4v.  The distributor has been replaced by a later style and recurved to suit the Holley, today’s fuel and a proper curve.  The distributor has been professionally recurved and the car has been professionally maintained, adjusted and tuned.  It’s a real runner!  The dual exhaust sounds great.  There are very few leaks for an old y-block auto.  There are no exhaust leaks.

Exterior:

The car presents itself very nicely.  The paint is older, perfect for a cruiser or daily driver.  The inner rockers need some attention but don’t seem to be a problem if you don’t use it in the winter.  The lights work well, windows, doors, hood, trunk and continental kit all function properly. 

Interior:  

The tach doesn’t work; the rest of the gauges and lights do!  It’s very comfortable inside, the seat cover could be replaced.  I have a new seat cover that is all white and leather but the piping is green.  This can be had for an addition cost.  It was $1,100 new.  The car does have a soft top.     

Undercarriage:

The frame is in great condition.  The inner rockers need some attention.  Exhaust is in great shape.

All in all, this car is in great condition for its age and as a cruiser. You can get in and enjoy the car.  If you want perfect, this is not your car.

It does come with a hard top and it has a black soft top.  The back window is broken in the hard top.   The ’56 intake and carb come with the car.  Clean PA title in my friend’s name.  Thank you.
