Hope who ever gets its takes lots of pictures and documents it before doing anything to it.


Amazing the tires/tubes still hold air, at least for a while. And are in decent shape other than the drivers front having a little sidewall damage.


If actually being from Minnesota amazing to me there is not more rust, or was road salt not used until relatively recently?


Is the "hitch bar" between the rear Bumperetts something original to the car, or was it an add-on or option?
Well I get the impression it has been sitting for a while. The license plate has a 65 on it so it has been a good 50 years since the car has been on the road.

On the salt note, Detroit was the first city in the world (at least that's what they say) to apply salt to the roads in 1940.
