Up for sale is my Chopped 1949 Ford Custom Shoebox.I’ve owned it since October, 2018.The previous owner, that I bought it from, bought it from the guy that had all of the work done. He told me that the guy he bought it from in 2016 got it from the original owner.Please see below for details on what was done by the previous owner.I replaced the steering wheel, carb air filters, new windshield glass and added beauty rings to the wheels.I also will include rear fender skirts that I purchased but never painted or put on.The battery is fairly new (still under warranty) and the oil recently changed.The odometer is broken so I don’t know the exact mileage (It reads 79,158).It runs great and I have had no issues with it.I weekend drive it and it is garage kept.This is not a show car.It is in daily driver condition and has small dings, chips, scratches blemishes and imperfections.Please look closely at the photos andcome take a look at it and drive it before making an offer.An accepted offer is a binding agreement.No warranty expressed or implied.
