Interesting - the seat fabric is '58 Dodge Custom Royal. Looks good!
Adventurer engine too!
Maybe the new owner is a member or will join?

Location: Sept. 1958 | Mike, I usually don't search, but in this case I remember this car when it was on eBay back in 2008. |

Location: The Mile High City | Great memory then! Interestingly, the 2008 thread on this car shows the pre-restoration condition/color of the steering wheel. I am going to repaint my steering wheel and these images are terrific!
You can see the 2017 steering wheel, which may have been repainted or recast, is more of a grey color. The 2008 wheel is, I think, a pewter color much like how mine was. |
