Good morning, I wanted to know if you could show me a photo of the body plate. Also on pictures 58 and 33, could you show the right side of the car at those same angles please. Could you also show photos of both door jambs closer and the rockers closer please. Also could you take closer photos of all of the dash. Also wondering if you can take closer photos of the top of the roof in the front and the back of the windows. And if you could also show a clear photo of the engine and where you took that on the car. Thank you very much .
Photos added to the end of the gallery for you
Photos of the stampings have been added to the end of the gallery.
Wondering what the condition of is. Are there scratches and chips in it? And how is the condition of all the Chrome? Is there any documented paperwork that comes with the car?
There are 60 pictures and 2 videos of the car that should give a clear idea of the condition. It is very nice UNRESTORED car. Chrome is excellent. There is a small ding by the grille on the passenger side, which is visible in the pictures. I have the NCRS shipping data report which shows the production date and original selling dealer of the car. Obviously if I had a build sheet, protect-o-plate, window sticker or anything else I would have mentioned it in the listing and the price would be double what I’m asking. Please read the ad in detail because it is quite comprehensive. Thanks.
Can you post pictures of the engine block stamp pad, and any transmission and differential stamping?
