Ebay item 1/14/09
cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll
Current bid $8,100 reserve not met, 15 bids 5 days left in auction.

Sellers description:
This Series I Coupe was converted to a Chevy 350 auto approximately 10 years ago. It runs good and looks good. The body is as close to being rust free original as you would expect to find.

This car makes a great driver as is or could be easily converted back to original.

Body: You can find some small spots of surface rust underneath the car but myself and several others have looked for real rust and have not been able to find any nor have we found any repairs. The floors appear to be excellent original as well as the trunk and rockers. I cannot find any bondo, not even in the bonnet. The car seems to have been painted one time. The original color is opalescent blue as shows in the picture of the trunk.

Interior: Seats and door panels have been re-done in blue vinyl and the carpet needs replacing. The headliner is in excellent original condition.

Glass: All glass is in good condition.

Tires: Good thin whitewalls on very nice chrome wires.

Mechanics: Chevy 350 /automatic with low mileage and four barrel carburator. Runs good and looks good. Speedometer and Odometer are not hooked up.

Chrome: Good original.

The day that I took these pictures it was cold and rainy in Atlanta so I didn't have a chance to wash and detail the car.

This car came from Texas.
