Description of 1933 Ford Other 5 Window

Please. No Trades. Just found in northern California. A true time capsule. 1933 Ford 5 Window Coupe that was rodded in the early 60's and last driven in 1971. It has been in a garage in northern California since. The car was built by a autobody specialist in the early 60's and sold in 1968. The car was driven by the owner for 3 years before being tucked away in 1971. The car has a Chev rear end with parallel leaf springs. Front end is 1933 with later spindles and juice brakes. The engine and transmission is 1949-1953 Mercury that was rebuilt and has approx 10000miles since but isn't set up to run. The clutch is stuck but car rolls. steers and brakes. The body is nearly mint. It has no patch panels in it. A few pin holes in the trunk and the inner fender wells with pictures attached to show. The rest of the floor. subrails. doors. lower cowl etc are free of patches and all original metal. There are a few small dents. The fenders had rod brazed on the inner lip and the front fender braces were attached to the fenders to create a smooth outer and minimize the chance of cracking. The decklid and tank cover are the nicest I have seen. The paint is dark blue lacquer that is 50 years old with minimal checking and no bubbling. Still shines and needs to be polished. Very few actual scratches that couldn't be buffed out. Grill is super solid with nice patina as is the windshield frame. The interior is the same age. Black diamond tuck seat and door panels. Foam has hardened so needs to be redone but the material is completely salvageable. The plates on the car are original to it. I doubt you will find a nicer example that is a true example of early 1960's California hotrodding. I will answer all messages. $500 paypal downpayment at end of auction Thanks very much for your time.
