I came across this 1961 4speed/ 95 hp. Last titled in 1975. Not sure when the last road action was. Original interior, original paint with several runny paint touch ups with a sray can. Everything is here. Pretty cool. There was even a little plug in the fuel filler area. Never have seen one before. Very little rust. There's a little where the clips went on the trim under the doors. It runs and moves forward and reverse. I took the lower shrouds off to remove and repair busted bolts on manifolds and discovered a bent ( pretty serious) push rod tube. ( the first on drivers side.) Car ran great and didn't hear any noise. I guess I'll remove the tube and see whats up.

What could it be...what should I check? You guys and gals seem to know it all.

Anyway, I was discouraged to realize tires will cost more than I paid for the car!. I need to finish the rampside and was hoping to make this a daily driver for a while.

What do you think about this car?

You could just ship the rampy on over to me, then you could devote all your time to the coupe.

Any car that runs and has little rust that can be bought for less than the price of a set of tires is a score in my book.

At some point you have to take off the "feelings" beanie and put on the "thinking" cap

I like it, looks like a good score.
