34 Ford Five-Window Hot Rod

Here we have a genuine 1934 Ford 5 window coupe.  Not an aftermarket replica titled as a 1934 Ford.  This is the real deal.  It was going to be my retirement project but life is going in a different direction.  I purchased this car several years ago from the son of the man who built it back in the early sixties and kept it in his possession until the mid eighties when he passed away.  It sat in the son's garage and has not been operated since then.  The front brakes were locked up and I removed the shoes so it would roll.  I also had to unbolt the column drop from the dash to turn the steering wheel as I don't have a key.  I do not know the condition of the engine and have made no attempt to turn it over.  Could be froze up after all of these years.  From my reasearch and what the seller told me, I believe it to be a 265 ci. out of a 1955 Corvette as it does not have an oil filter.  I do not see any evidence of rust or patch panels anywhere.  It does have some damage on the front fenders and a few little dings here and there but overall appears to be a very solid original body and sheet metal.  The glass is in very good condition for it's age with none broken or cracked.  All of the other period hot rod stuff speaks for itself.  From the Cadillac-La Salle transmission to the crank driven Stuart Warner tach and everything in between, this car is a true survivior.  I have a clean/clear California title in my name and my signature alone will release all interest in the vehicle and make it yours.  You will receive exactly what is in the photos.  Nothing more and nothing less.
