awesome, find

If it were mine, I wouldn't touch that car, just clean it, too precious of a benchmark to lose all that originality/patina to a restoration IMHO

Jim, unfortunetly the floors are shot and the trunk pan is a little weak too. The speakers are all intact with the radio and this is still the original lacquer paint on it

Build sheet?

Flint cars are not known to have the typical build sheet as most other plants. However, the car has never been apart so we don't yet know what's in it. We did find a trim paper denoting the bucket seats and interior trim code, that was just under the back seat as we looked quick for seat belts that had fallen behind the seat.

Yep, they're even more rare than Arlington sheets. Just pullin your chain a little.

Nice detail shots.

I saw the car on ebay, considered bidding, what a cool car! Great entry price too.
