No affiliation with the car. Just posting it for a local Twin Cities seller. I don't know the seller.

Asking $80K. Might be a neat car if one guy has owned it for over 70% of its life.

Looks like a nice car, the steering wheel appears to be wrong, but cannot tell from the photo's but I think 80K in this market is really way out of consideration.

Maybe the seller doesn't really want to sell, and he's just picking a really high number to see if anyone bites. No idea, I don't know the guy. (or gal as the case may be)

Neat car either way.

Default Odd little look here.........

Why is the car sitting so high??? Is it on blocks AND wheels? The steering wheel is a passenger car wheel, the front emblem is a 56/57 emblem, and worst, the trim on the sides has been REALLY monkeyed with. The trim is too high on the side of the car. The stainless should be inline with the front and rear chrome and on this one, the side stainless and gullwing is high by about 3 inches. This means the side bonding strips have been ground off. If this occured, what else is hidden wrong with the body??? Afterall, the most valuable thing to a 54 is the condition of the body....you just can't replace panels and get away with it like other years.

If the body has been monkeyed with, you have to wonder about the frame, axle, motor, etc.....

Way over-priced.......
