I went and saw this car. It has 1 pcs windows, no glove box and I think the slider was a clip. It's all right from 10 feet but needs some work. Not really any rust any where. Engine is stock and runs good. Paint is nice too. The roof headliner is crap but I guess the dash smoothed over is what did me in.

If you wanted to fix that dash, I've got one cut from a 57.

The car has been around k-town for the 10 years or so and i've never seen it out in the snow. It's just up road from my place. It was rumor that a local hack (i could be wrong) put the car together so double check the the heater channels, front apron and rear qtrs for glass and tons of bondo. As from what i remember before it was parked it ran nice and clean. If any of the out of town guys want to know more about the car i would have no probs knocking on the sellers door for you and getting a couple better pics.

I looked at it and to be honest it has a very good body but if you could fix the dash it would be alot better. The interior has been redone but it's so,so. The guy bought a few years ago and really never drove it  but did have it painted. There is a scratch on the paint on the passenger door but could be fixed. I think that it was a rust free car to start but just got some silly mods done to it. It is better than some of the crap out there for sure.
