Neighbor is going to sell their m43, price tbd, I think it’s a USA ‘54 but I forgot to get a photo of the tag. I made a lowball offer but I have too many projects already and the family would like to get a fair price. I put a couple of pics on Instagram, happy to forward your contact info to the family.
I haven’t inspected it carefully, the ground was muddy and I’m fat so I didn’t crawl under it yet. It has been sitting for years. Back door has bondo peeling and the passenger side scraped something. Otherwise better than a lot of pnw stuff I’ve seen and they said they have the title in hand.
It has a running Oldsmobile v8/at, not impressed with the work I can see from the top - frame is trimmed on the drivers’ side and the front is lifted with spacers ... basically blocks, looks like. Also mods to the body panels above the front fenders and maybe the radiator support, haven’t got my head around that, need to look at it longer. First thought is a slight Pinocchio adjustment but I did not measure to make sure. I do know it ran for years like this and plowed snow on their driveway before being parked when the owner got sick.
