I went and looked at this car today.
The paint is not original. Very cheap respray, overspray everywhere and wavy. Birdcage is rusted under the rear door Jambs. Did not have to look hard to see it. Car has been in heavy salty air environment for sure. Headlights are rusted open on the balls. Headlight wiring connectors had rusted corroded off the connector from the motor. Frame looked ok. Newer Carter carb maybe rebuilt. Radiator not original shroud rattle canned.
I looked for 15 minutes and left.
----Thanks sixt9! Guess we can put this one out to pasture.....Bill S

Lawrence, thanks for your detailed observations. This prevented a lot of people wasting their time on this car.
