I did a basic go-through on almost every bit of this car. It runs good, starts up good. I went on a 30 or so mile trip on a warm day with no problems. Kept up with traffic. I got it up to about 65 or 70. Turn signals and 4-ways work.
The body is in great shape. The rust doesn't seem to be too bad, just spots here and there. The most rust looks like on some of the rims, but I was just going to wire wheel and rust convert if I kept it. Looks like someone tried to fix and/or prevent rust at some point. They put on a really thick brown paint all over, even the undercarriage (axles, leaf springs, frame, etc.). It seems to have done the job. The original Dodge Brothers emblems are present.
Windshield is cracked and so is one of the rear windows but they are still solid. No clouding. Cowl vent works and so does windshield crank-out. The interior was in really bad shape when I got it and not to mention incorrect (looks like some previous owner gutted it and tried to do by hand) so I removed it and cleaned it out the best I could. The bows are still present for the headliner. The seats are in really great shape. Inside is painted black.
I started sanding the body down to prep for paint. All it really needs to get it to being a basic staff car is finishing prepping the body and rims and then paint o.d.. I have two gallons of TM9 shade 8 o.d. and the proper thinner to go along with the car if desired. I will include the stencils for the hood numbers as well.
It's sold as-is and where is. Some extra parts are included such as an original radio, extra dash, extra hub caps, etc. Comes with a spare tire that is new as well with a matching artillery rim. Come take a look and test drive it. Has great potential. Would be good for re-enacting or even just driving around. Has a clear title in my name and I will include a bill of sale as well. Asking $6,000 or best. After you commit to buying I will need the payment within a week. It can stay here for a month or two, though, if you need time to arrange pick-up. I tried to describe it as well as I could but any questions just shoot me a pm. Thanks for looking.
