According to the bill of sale (see photo) the car originally sold for $4,795 with 58.2 miles showing on the odometer. This car has stayed with the couple who bought the car new wherever they have lived. Since the car was purchased new, the car went from Melbourne, Florida to Sarasota, Florida until 1980. Then they moved to Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Maryland and North Carolina, until finally settling back in Sarasota, Florida in 1996 until now. The car has always been garage kept and properly maintained since new. The has never been damaged in the 47 years of ownership. Car currently has clean Florida title with actual miles stated at 72,275 actual miles.

    During the past few years, the car has been restored with a new metallic maroon paint as per original. The original paint was stripped to bare metal and professionally painted in original opalescent Maroon. During that time, the all rubber items were replaced as well as a new windshield and dashboard top. The seats were redone in correct Beige leather. A new tan canvas top with rear opening window were also done. (all records available). The body is in wonderful condition. The paint shows very well, there is one minor ding on passenger door, but can easily be removed safely. Car comes with 5 original wire wheels. As well as all original tools and books. Gauges all function properly and read nicely. All original motor and body and gearbox.

    Awesome car even though the one owner description and the " restoration just completed" comments are stretching the facts.

    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
