02/02/2022 - What this car needs:
It only runs in 2nd gear and reverse.
It has computer issues with faults in equipment used in a 2002 C230K but not reused in this 1952 street rod.
The Vintage Air is hooked up and the heat works but the AC system needs to be charged.
Front and rear bumpers included, install if you want them.
I will tinker on the car till it is sold and update this listing as needed. Ask questions, if you need an extra photo ask.
I have described the car to the best of my abilities. No warranties expressed or implied.
Even with the small difficulties the $20,000.00 price tag is a bargain compared to the prices of 170 basket cases. Do your due diligence and compare my price with Hemming's Motor News and Ebay.
