12-10-2016 Update - I added a couple of photos of the trunk (looks like original spare), engine and tags or ID plates for those that requested. Requests to sell outside of auction will not beresponded to. I also am unable to meet with interested parties for individual showings or answer with phone calls due to volume of requests. The car is represented as it truly is. I neglected to check glove compartment today for owner's manual. My dad would most likely have had it there. I did verify the rust showing on the top of drivers side fender is from a rusty pipe above the car. There is no rust on any quarters or fenders or wheel wells. It is solid. I will attempt to answer all questions that I can answer and will share on the listing for all to view. Thank you for your interest.

Question was asked about condition of tires and access to the garage. I neglected to post so all could see. Here is response: No attempts have been made to inflate tires. It is fairly tight in garage. I believe a strong air compressor with long hose will be necessary to inflate. These seem to be the original tires on the car and are totally flat from sitting so I can't tell you they will hold air. I believe there is enough access to change the tires, though tight. The driveway curves prior to entrance to garage so it will be a little tight getting a tow truck all the way to the garage. The car just needs to go from garage to end of straight part of driveway - about 30 feet. Perhaps a floor jack and inserting tire dollies would make the job easy.

I will be going to the house to attempt to air up the tires, check for Owner's Manual in glove box and to also check the oil and take photo of dipstick and will post an update for all.
