Location: So. Cal		Bring a trailer clientele typically prefer finished cars. I wouldn't expect it to get up to very high. I think Austin (the owner) may be better off trying to sell it on other venues, but we'll see. It would also have been smart to sand the rusted hood down a bit, apply rust converter, and spray a matte finish clear coat over that part for the pictures. It would make the patina look much more presentable that way.

Winning bid was $13,550.  Neat station wagon.  I really like the interior.  The floorpan patchwork was a bit worrisome though.  I understand the "numbers matching" 350 could be had with the wagon.

Location: So. Cal		Yes, all '58 Firesweeps came with the 350 "Turboflash" engine as standard. A 4bbl powerpak for it was optional.

That was cheap, for a driveable mostly original car

Location: Blythewood, SC		That was Austin Swanger's car. It's really nice. I'm sure he's disappointed that it sold for that price.
