I'm also working on car #503 right now.  This car is in absolutely amazing condition.  It's is the most original rust-free car I've seen and I've worked on hundreds of them.  Unfortunately, it had a repaint many years ago that is not holding up so I'm getting the car ready to go to paint.  This car is in such original condition, except for some hoses and hose clamps, I thought I would post it in case someone was restoring one and needs to see any original details.  I'd be glad to post any pictures.  This car even has the original water pump.

    Some more photos of it when it was listed on ebay last fall.  Odd mirrors on the fenders.  Did it come with the original seats or the later style shown in the ad photos?  Was the exterior side molding trim just stuck on with adhesive or did it it leave holes in the sheetmetal?

    Thanks Mike B, I've never seen those pictures.  The seats were original just the covers were wrong.  I was able to find some original seats with the original upholstery and I'll be putting those in.  The side moulding was riveted on.  The mirrors are pretty funky; part of the reason for the paint job.
