"An unrestored car in excellent original condition, repainted only once in 1991. Runs perfectly and feels stable on the road."

Description

This car was imported to Sweden in 1992. It was driven by a single owner in Montana until 1969 when it was taken off the road and stored. It remained there until 1992, when it was imported to Sweden. At that time, the original protective plastic was still on the interior, which is all original except for the carpet, parcel shelf, and dashboard.

Upon arrival in Sweden, the car was partially dismantled and repainted in sections. The front suspension and brakes were overhauled, as rubber components naturally age over 34 years.

The car has never had any rust repairs. It was deregistered between 1993 and 1999, during which time the engine underwent a full rebuild in 1999. It was again deregistered from 2004 to 2015.

From its arrival in Sweden in 1992 until the current owner purchased it in autumn 2015, the car averaged just 7 kilometers per year.

When originally purchased in 1958, the car was equipped with several options:

Hood ornament

Side mirrors on both front fenders

Antennas on the rear fenders

Running board trim strips

Three chrome strips on each side of the trunk lid

Large panoramic rear window

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The car runs exceptionally well, and in addition to regular oil changes, the current owner has carried out the following work:

    New carburetor

    New starter motor

    Electronic ignition system (breakerless)

    Original radio converted to FM

    Generator replaced with an alternator designed to look like the original DC generator; the newly rebuilt original DC generator and starter motor are still included.

  • Interior condition:

    Very nice original interior, with only the seat fabric showing cracks. The dashboard, parcel shelf, and carpet were replaced in 1992.

  • Exterior condition:

    The car was repainted in its original color in 1992 and remains in excellent condition. The original chrome is in good shape, showing only minor signs of age. The rear window has been replaced, but the trim strips have not yet been installed—they are included in the trunk (see photos).

  • General condition:

    Incredibly well-preserved 1950s car, ready to hit the road for summer meets and outings.

Owner's comment

For over ten years, we’ve attended countless car meets and cruises without any problems, and the engine has never overheated despite hours on the road. We’ve also done several road trips—the most recent being a few years ago when we drove all the way up to Norrland (we live in southern Skåne) without any issues, except for rain every other day. Just a heads-up: you can’t sneak by unnoticed—people always come over to chat or simply express how happy they are to see the car.

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.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
