Location: Alaska		Here's some pictures of my car in the condition I bought it. Of course it won't stay this way. It is a very solid car, originally a V-8 3 speed with radio and heater delete, manual brakes and steering, That must make it the lightest model made.

Location: DFW, TX		Heater and radio weren't standard equipment. So if your car doesn't have it, it's not technically "Heater / Radio Delete" but just wasn't ordered with those options.

It is a rare business coupe bodystyle, with no roll down rear windows. It has fender trim and side trim, so it is not completely option-less. I'd like to see the build tag on that car!! It can be found on the firewall above the pass-side hood hinge.

I see what looks like rust coming through the head and tail light trim- are they steel? My wagon had steel eyebrows up front and non-plated tail light housings out back, I've never seen another like that.

It does look like it was ordered to be a hot rod, so I wonder if it has the Fury V800 option!!

Rolland, what do you know about your car's history/

Yep, the steel tail light trim and eyebrows were on the base models..I guess you COULD have ordered the Aluminum housing's if you wanted them, but these came factory on Silve Specials, 2dr base sedans, and 4dr base sedans, but I have a 4dr '58 Savoy with aluminum housings and eyebrows..

Location: Lemoore CA		Is that an added heater core under the dash? It almost looks like an air conditioning condensor.
