Well I spoke with the owner tonight. The car is sitting in his shed, pretty much were it has been the whole time he has owned it. The car still has it's original paint and interior. There is minor rust in the quarters and the lower fenders. The hood was cut for clearance and a hoodscoop. The original engine is gone but he did say he would call his friend and see if he still has it. The original wheels are still on the front, Keystone Classics on the rear. He does have the original wheels for the rear. The interior needs some minor work (how minor , I didn't ask??). He did say it is road worthy and he wouldn't hesitate to drive it to Omaha or Lincoln.

So the thousand dollar question everyone is wondering, is it for sale? He said maybe, he'll think about it for a few days. I caught him off guard and he hadn't thought of selling it. I think he realizes it's been sitting this long and he hasn't gotten to redoing it and probably won't. He said he'll call in a few days but if I don't hear from him within a week or so to call back since he probably got sidetracked.

He did want to try and determine what it is worth. Excluding the sentimental value it shouldn't be too much. Not numbers matching, needs rust repair and a hood plus some interior work and the windshield is cracked.

Hopefully the price is affordable and fair so I can bring her home. I can feel the excitement in dads voice.
