This thing has no engine, probably a victim of a rodder wanting the hemi. Other than that, the car looks extremely dry and solid. Life long Nevada car perhaps? Might be a good base for a restoration if you got a spare hemi lying around. Comes with recored radiator and 300B spoked rims. $1200 is a good price if it's as solid and complete as it looks.
