HAVE WHAT I BELIEVE TO BE THE ORIGINAL ENGINE INCLUDED 292 OR 312 (NOT A FORD ENTHUSIAST)SELLING THIS CAR FOR A FRIEND.
THIS IS A COMPLETE 1956 SUNLINER CONVERTIBLE IN RESTORABLE CONDITION. THESE SEEM TO BE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN, SO HERE'S YOU CHANCE TO OWN A DESIRABLE OLD FORD FOR A REASONABLE PRICE. EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE THERE, THE CAR IS VERY COMPLETE, SO YOU WONT HAVE TO BE CHASING A BUNCH OF PARTS DOWN!
THE BODY ON THIS CAR HAS HAD PREVIOUS WORK. I CAN SEE SEVERAL AREAS WHERE PREVIOUS PAINTWORK HAS BEEN DONE. THE DOOR SHUT AND LATCH. THE DRIVERS DOOR RUBS THE FENDER AND THE FENDER NEEDS SECURED. ALL OF THE GLASS IS INTACH, HOWEVER THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT HAS A CRACK. THE PASS SIDE GLASS IS THERE BUT IS OFF THE REGULATOR SO IT WONT ROLL UP. IT APPEARS LIKE ALL THE CHROME IS COMPLETE. THE CAR IS EQUIPPED WITH A CONTINENTAL KIT. THE TRUNK FLOOR IS VERY SOLID. THERE ARE ONLY A FEW SMALL SPOTS OF RUST. THE FLOOR BOARDS ARE RUSTY AND PROBABLY COULD BE REPLACED. THERE IS A LITTLE RUST AT THE BOTTOM OF BOTH FRONT PILLARS. THE CONVERTIBLE TOP IS ACTUALLY IN VERY GOOD SHAPE. NO RIPS OR TEARS AND SHOULD BE USABLE. THE TOP FRAME IS IN VERY GOOD SHAPE. THE TRUNK LID AND HOOD ARE VERY SOLID AND NO ROTTED UNDERNEATH. THIS CAR WAS STORED IN A BARN FOR YEARS!!
THE INTERIOR SEEMS TO BE FAIRLY COMPLETE. SOMEONE CHANGED THE FRONT DOOR PANELS, BUT THE ORIGINALS ARE INCLUDED. THEY HAVE HE TRIM ON THEM BUT ARE IN POOR SHAPE. PLEASE LOOK AT THE PICTURES BECAUSE WHATS INCLUDE IN THE INTERIOR IS PICTURED. I.E. EXTRA FENDER SKIRTS, HEADLIGHT SURROUND BEZELS, BUMPERETTES, SPARE TIRE CHROME SURROUND AND COVER
PREVIOUS OWNER STATED YEARS AGO THE ORIGINAL ENGINE WAS REPLACED WITH A VERY HEALTHY390 CU IN ENGINE WITH THREE DUECES. IT HAS A COMPLETE TRI-POWER SETUP WITH AIR CLEANER. WE HAVEN'T HAD THE ENGINE FIRED UP, HOWEVER IT DOES TURN FREE. IT HAS A THREE SPEED TRANSMISSION AND WAS CONVERTED TO A FLOOR SHIFT. WHAT IS BELIEVED TO BE THE ORIGINAL ENGINE IS INCLUDED. IT APPEARS TO BE COMPLETE. I AM NOT EXPERIENCED IN OLD FORDS, SO I CAN ONLY GO OFF WHAT HE WAS TOLD.
THE FRAME AND SUSPENSION ARE COMPLETE. THE CAR ROLLS AND STEERS FINE. THE BRAKES ARE NEXT TO NONE.
THIS IS A VERY COMPLETE ANTIQUE CAR READY FOR RESTORATION. THESE SUNLINER CONVERTIBLES ARE HARD TO FIND AND VERY DESIRABLE WHEN COMPLETED. THIS WILL MAKE SOMEONE A NICE PROJECT AND AN EASY CAR TO RESTORE BECAUSE ITS VERY COMPLETE.
