The body is overall in good condition with only minor dings/dents and minor surface rust. The original flathead inline 8 cylinder is complete including the original air cleaner and will need to be rebuilt. The car also has 4 correct original full wheel hub caps. The spare tire well in the trunk is solid and not rusted out. It will need a complete interior kit, but the front and rear seats are intact. We have a set of original fender skirts and a good used lift gate that will also go with the car.
We purchased the car knowing the NADA book value for a restored #2 ’51 Pontiac 8 wagon is over $69000, so this solid Texas car is very worthy of restoration.
