About this car

Hemmings listing in Astoria, NY. Offered on Hemmings in Astoria, NY.

What the photos show

White paint is dead and stained, with surface rust streaking the hood, roof, sills and rear panels — budget for a full repaint and rust repair.
Chrome bumpers and grille are rusty and pitted all over — budget for full re-chroming or replacement.
Steel wheels are rusty and the tires look old and flat-spotted — budget for wheels and a full set of tires.
Blue seats look surprisingly intact for the car's state, but the floors are filthy with debris — budget for a full interior strip and clean before judging the trim.
Dash wood is peeling and delaminating and the door trim is damaged — budget for wood and trim restoration.
Engine bay is complete but corroded and dirty throughout, with rust on the radiator and components — budget for a full mechanical recommission at minimum.
The rear window is cloudy and the glass and seals look tired all round — budget for glass and rubber work.
No underside photos in the gallery — can't judge the underside, and on a car this rusty that is where the biggest money is decided.

Money: At $17,500 you are buying a rare but derelict 1958 coupe shell and parts — the restoration this car needs will cost several times the asking price, so the money only works if that full budget is already planned.
