Solid driver, starts great, drive anywhere. The car is currently in storage in Oldham county, outside of Louisville, Kentucky. Car was built in Oakland (according to VIN tag) and spent most of life in Pacific Northwest. I purchased the car out of Portland, Oregon.
Car is not perfect but is a solid driver. Floors are super solid. Trunk floor solid. The passenger fender and rocker panel are somewhat tweaked along the lower edge (looks as though it may have made contact with a curb from previous owner) and the rear quarter panels (inside the trunk drop-off area) contain a few small pin holes and surface rust. Big things it needs: paint/body, headliner, carpet, radio (or radio delete plate), rear package tray (unless you use the speaker cutouts already there), complete door/window seal kit, and carburetor rebuild (the carburetor currently installed does work but this is something I wanted to do but did not get a chance). I have an additional carburetor that is a good candidate for rebuild that goes with the car. I also have a handful of miscellaneous parts that accompany the car (extra interior vinyl, under-hood insulation, etc.)
Every item removed from the car was cleaned, stripped, and primed/painted before reinstallation. Most all bolts removed were replaced with grade-8 cad plated or stainless steel hardware. Here is a list of worked performed (I may be forgetting items, but this is a good representation):
