CALL 912.4148993 with any questions or to make an offer to buy this car. Messages will likely be missed/ ignored, thank you. Extremely solid original car here. 97000 original miles, I bought from the estate of the original owner , which was liquidating many dozens of cool old cars this guy owned. Very rare car, no-post sedan , bubble window cruiser. No rust, but a lot of work to do here to make road ready .
I bought this car about a year ago out of the Nevada desert. Bought from the estate of the original owner. Have tiny pink slip / title from the 1980s .
This is actually a featured car on Grand Theft Auto (video game), so I thought a very cool coincidence it has 'GTA' original black license plates.
Car is complete , except missing battery and radiator.
Original blue interior - dash is cracked, some tears in seats, steering wheel is cracked. Very cool transluscent instruments intact and dash uncut. Wiring all in place and working, as far as I can tell. Tires old.
Original 361 engine was gone when I bought the car, and a poly 318 was just sitting in the engine bay (not bolted in) - I removed this 'A' engine, and replaced with a 'RB' .
I bought a 1963 Chrysler Imperial with a rebuilt 413 , removed this engine and transmission, and have temporarily fitted into the Dodge now. NOT ready to run! Needs cables / hoses / shift cables/ etc hooked up and rear driveline made.
Interior took a beating from the sun in the desert , but this is also why the body has ZERO RUST. Sure, some surface rust in the trunk ,or surface rust on a piece of trim, but the car body and frame are absolutely 100% solid . Put up on lift, floors are perfect.
413 V8 engine , Pushbutton 727 automatic.
Fuel tank is rust free and clean, you can start plumbing and finish engine install and be cruising relatively soon , but I am sure you will have to go through brakes / etc. I was told this has not been on the road in about 40 years.
Can you find another , more original 63 year old car out there with no rust? I do not think so. I definitely do not think you will find another one of these this solid and original without spending an arm/leg.
Clean slate for your finishing work.
I am looking to not have to push this around my yard any more.... I love the look of this car and admire the Virgil Exner cars , which is why I bought this. I do , however, have a lot of other work I should be doing, and I am not a body or interior guy, just an engine guy.
I have a lot of extra parts that can go with the car, call me for details.
I have video of 413 running before I pulled it and put in Dodge.
There is original dash owners manual, and original build sheet from 1961 / Dodge (though it is falling apart)
If you want to ask any questions, make an offer , make an appointment to come look, I am all ears - You will have to call me up though.
I can help have this shipped anywhere in the USA. I can sell to overseas buyers.
If you do make a deal with me on the car, or buy it now, I do expect payment within 5 days. I can store for free for up to 60 days. I can work with your shipper, or help arrrange shipping for you.
No credit cards or paypal, most other forms of certified payment accepted.
Thank you for reading all of this.
