Current bid $2,550, no reserve, 4 bids 9 days left in auction.

Sellers description:
THE GOOD
Car runs on all 12 cylinders, gearbox smooth, clutch good, recent brake master cylinder, new front brakes, (rears don't think so), leather nice and clean, remarkably so, recent new floors, outer sills. All lights work, horn switch inoperative, gauges all work, doesn't overheat, drives ok, (around the yard), headliner is good.

THE NOT SO GOOD
Car has rust in the hood, rear fenders, door bottoms, air conditioning compressor missing(?),scabs in the door skins, needs a new muffler system, front shocks sag, hood check strap missing, needs carpets, all rubbers perished, (new set of rubbers included with car), and probably a few other little things.

As per my instructions from, "SHE WHO MUST BE OBEYED", I am not to consider this car for restoration, (although to be fair, it is eminently restorable; a lot of the hard work is done, except for the things mentioned above +/- ???)

With this resolve in mind, my dearest has told me in no uncertain terms, that THIS car must be sold toute de suite, with

NO RESERVE!!!!!!!!!

The Car has now moved. It was recently purchased by me and is now sitting comfortably in my garage.
So far, Exhaust patched up, front shocks done
Next, Drop the rear end to overhaul the brakes and shocks. Ugh
