I’ve known about this one for awhile now, owner passed away a few years ago and I finally got a deal put together with the family after much emotion on their part to let it go to a new caretaker.
It’s a 64 Crown that was imported from the Midwest several years ago after the owners sold a beautiful 57 DeSoto and wanted something different
It has 84,000 on the clock and recently had a full rebuild of both motor and transmission and it runs beautifully
It is going to stay in storage where it is until the roads are clean enough in the spring to bring it home
Car has been repainted, and has a couple of suspect bondo areas but I’ll deal with that somewhere down the road
It does have a couple problems that I’ll deal with sooner if I can, both rear window motors have been removed by a “friend “ and condemned as N/G.... but they are present with car, so I’ll get them checked out
The rear bumper was damaged before the owner passed, and it looks to me like it hit a parking post or something....dent to the right of license plate, pushed center out a bit and turned up right corner.... there isn’t any facilities in this part of the world any more to see if it can be saved or not, so I am open for suggestions on a good plating and bumper shop or if you know of a rear bumper for sale let me know - Thanks
