The car does show signs of being an older restoration but will serve fine as a high-level driver or drama free base for full restoration or custom. Speaking of custom this car is equipped with the Ford optional Continental kit with a personal touch of Little Darling across the spare wheel cover. Additionally factory hubcaps wrapped in thin white walls add a touch of class.
