| Unusual, it has the Deluxe AC as revealed by the fresh air scoops outboard the rear window. 12V too. Probably also has power windows and seats. This one may have had the 3-speed Torqueflite, so the shifter pod will be real special. Good stuff for a 300B project.

Location: bishop, ca | I wonder if the car's 'missing' engine has anything to do with its present whereabouts, at The Hot Rod Hotel?
(You can check in any time you like, but you can never leave [intact]...).

Location: North Australia | Mike, you and I have similar taste in cars!
I aint never seen a 56 in the flesh..............one day.....'
When I see this ad I get a bit sad. I think about the Feller who had the 354 and box for sale (from an Imp) who wanted to sell for a job just like this.
Steve.
