Description

Originally sold in Sweden by dealer Gustaf E Johnasson in Falköping, this car has primarily resided in the Kungsälv area for most of its life until it was purchased by the current owner in 2018. At the time of acquisition, the car was partially renovated body and engine but not fully completed. The current owner undertook extensive work, including replacing the rear wings and doors, and repainting them. The engine was comprehensively reviewed, with all worn parts replaced. Additionally, the electrical system was upgraded, and the brakes were fully renovated, including improvements to the front suspension, with an overarching goal of making it an exceptional driver. The bodywork is rust-free and undamaged, showcasing a nice paint job, bright and clean chrome work, plus American bumpers. The car comes with thorough documentation and an assortment of older parts, as indicated in the pictures.

    Bodywork is straight with good panel gaps and shutlines, and shows no signs of rust or damage. It also features a clean and rust-free underbody, as highlighted in the pictures. The chrome work is bright and shiny throughout, and the car is fitted with an American bumper, enhancing its appearance. The paintwork is in nice and clean condition.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
