They must have a lot of floods or fields in New York.

The car is in Floral Park, which is on Long Island (about a half hour west of me). Recall that not only do we routinely get battered by hurricanes each year, but winters are brutal, and in 2012, we had Sandy come through, causing massive flooding (many really beautiful cars were lost - even inside flooded garages in coastal areas - though Floral Park should have been away from most of that, assuming this car was in that area in 2012).

If I had room, this might be another project I'd consider, but timing is everything, as we say. I hope the right person snatches it up - along with the matching engine - and does it the justice it deserves.

It may have been set up for 17" or 18" wheels before , or even 20".
That , or it has jack stands under the frame.

Seems like a good car otherwise though.
They should have pictured the actual BHC document and the original engine.
