This is an amazing build! It is like driving a Modern car with Old style. I will try to tell you as much as I can without being to long or boring with my description. With that said, If you have any questions please call me Bobby Hines 504-453-7844 or 985-892-9106 All parts in build were either like new or new at build. No short cuts or cutting corners. Only 16k miles since build.

*I have a really nice canvas painting of the car that will also be included in the sale
*Paint is very nice but you will find a flaw or two (I would rather under promise and over deliver) (Paint was done in December 2015) The car has no rust nor bondo!!

*Original Louisiana 1954 Yams License plate included
*This car has always been garage kept its entire life. I was told that I am the 3rd owner.
*Issues--- The radio doesn't work. slight tear on back fabric of front seat.
Doesn't have an emergency brake. (Not a problem for me in Louisiana-everything is flat!)
To sum things up-- This car starts right up (no carb/choke issues) being GM factory fuel injection. Drives like a Modern car. Gets great MPG, very reliable! NO PROBLEMS. No leaks, no taps, no smoke, no issues! Take this car and drive her across the country!
Restomods are usually priced around 50k to 100k on the average with some being much higher than that. I am pricing this car at a very very low reasonable price for an easy sale.
