With the broken windshield too, did someone die in that car?

This 59 seems like a deal compared to all the asking prices lately.

That would be tragic... spend $140K then have an engine fire.

Looks very nice:

Based on its location, perhaps Mr. Moxon knows more about this one?

Yes, you'd think I would know but I don't. Of course I know about the Judson stuff and George Folchi but I've long hung up my "Judson Hat" and don't get to hear the inside story any more.

Chris (Rockstock) and Russ (aerosilver) are my "go to" guys if I want an inside line on a UK Lowlight. Smile

OK guys,

I changed the description of my add, as most people don't understand the value of early lowlight parts,

Please Tell me if I am incorrect. Smile

OK, you may be correct. But that car needs a full resto. Please sum up the missing parts, the hours of labor and prices for a resto of sheet metal, engine, trans, brakes, front axle, interieur, paint-job, chrome bumpers, trim, glass and so on. Compare that with prices of somehow drivable 56 Lowlights. Suggest the idea to make it drivable and sound and hope for a good sell then.

If it´s a parts car only, imo nobody is willing to pay a whole, but uncomplete car partswise for the complete price, you demand. >> CUT it down if you want!
If it´s worth a resto and has all matching numbers parts, please show us evidence, more and better pics and the birth certificate.
Thank you
