Description of 1949 Chevrolet Other Styleline

This is a project I've had for some time, nd I may never get to it. I decided to list it on here. It's a 1949 Chevrolet 2 door Styleline I bought off the second owner. This was a running, riving vehicle in 2012 and has been sitting since. I tried to get it going last winter by rebuilding the carburetor and putting on a simple exhaust system, ut a wheel seal blew and ended my fun. It's sat ever since again.
Mechanical;235 full oil pressure inline six from a 1955 Chevrolet Pickup. Has a lockup TH350C with a Langdon's Stoveboltadapterplate. Lokar shifter. Lokar trans dipstick and kickdown cable. Open driveline conversion with mid-70's Nova rear and driveshaft. Motor is rebuilt and has less than 100 miles on it. Car is converted to 12volts with a new harness front to rear. GM internal regulator alternator. Rebuilt radiator. New Tanks INC gas tank and fuel lines.
Brakes and Suspension;Lowered three inches with cut coils and drop blocks. The rearsuspensionneeds work. It was done when I was much younger and it's not up to my current acceptable level of quality. The shock mounts and axle pads should be re-done or at least re-welded. Front have been upgraded to 1954 self-actuating brakes and rear are mid 1970's nova brakes. It is drum front and rear. Master cylinder has been moved to firewall using a 1967 C10 pedal assembly and master. The car also has four new tires, ut they've been sitting since 2012.
Body;Mostly rust free, specially for it's age. Has a few small holes, ents, nd dings. Floor has holes in it that Ifiber glassedover years ago. Trunk also has holes.
Summary;Good project to complete, r re-do from scratch with a lot of new parts already installed. The engine to transadapterplate was nearly $700 alone. It cannot be driven because the carburetor leaks and a wheel seal has leaked in the rear axle soaking the brakes. It also hasn't been driven in many years so I wouldn't risk it. I have a reserve set at what it will take for me to let go of it. If it doesn't hit that I'll keep it, don't have to sell it.
Don't expect a perfect vehicle, his is from 1949. I've tried to describe it as honestly as I can. I recommend talking to me, r coming to look at it prior to bidding so youaren'tgetting something you don't expect.
