Although this prized collectible did not go through a rotisserie restoration , it was meticulously restored to the smallest detail for today driving standards. Everything works! There is absolutly nothing the new proud owner needs to do. It is rust free and the body is straight as an arrow. All new chrome work. Mirror finish repaints to original glory. The interior is original and it is in better than excellent condition. There are no rips or tears. It has aged gracefully and yet maintained the essence of fine quality finish without a blemish. One look at this fine automobile and one recognized that for 44 years this car has been pampered and well care for.

This is a work of art. A moving sculpture. Design by Elwood Engel. The lines are elegant and understate. The design is regal and rich. A beautiful proportion master piece from a by gone era.
