THIS is the bird that Started it all!!!You are bidding on a non-running. non-driving. rusted barn find. There are no warrenties on this vehicle. What you see is what you get. which includes the spare wheels. The previous owner (Windsor. CT) was driving this car 5 years ago. I believe him as far as I could throw him. not far! Either way. better safe than sorry. she is soaking in kroil and mystery oil as we speak. I will not attempt turn the motor as this is an intricate engine and I don't want to mess anything up for the next buyer if it is stuck. So regarding the motor. I can not speake to its condition. I will say there was a full load of old oil in the crank which was a relief. There is no title with this car. The last owner loast it. He owned it 30 years. so I would say its clean. www. broadwaytitle. com will issue a new one for a small fee. Happy Bidding!
