$27,000, cash or certified check

This was a barn find a few years ago in Salem Or. It had sat for 9 years and did not run. I put her on a trailer and brought her home to SC where I managed to breathe life into her.

Although I love to drive her, I enjoy working on it more and there's virtually nothing left to do. Time to move on and find another one to play with.
