Simply a Honest Time Warp package that can be cruised as-is and/or restored to perfection!! Read on for More!!
This old Aero Sedan sports California heritage which shows in it's absolutely solid, straight and virtually rust free body!! The two/tone Blue driver quality finish has held up well over the years!

Shifting is controlled via a factory "3 on the Tree" 3-spd manual transmission. The front end has been lowered 3.5" with new springs and the rear has been lowered 4', Wow, how low can you go!!

In closing, you will find this a wonderful time warp driver quality cruiser fitted with tons of rare optional items! A great value to enjoy the way she is and/or the perfect specimen for a top notch restoration!! Throw yer Golf Clubs in the trunk and head out to the course (I met the owner on the #1 Fairway for this Photo Shoot, Ha!) PENDING SALE GOOD LUCK!!!!
Known Items: A rock solid Dry Climate specimen with little to no rust ever, the only minor spot noted was near the floor trunk latch (minor but there see sub-page photo circled area). An older cosmetic restoration estimated @ more than 20 years young, she has held up well, The paint is very shiny with typical age/nicks/chips and use flaws. The chrome/stainless is good, appears original showing expected age & patina. Glass appears original. The interior has no major tear or wear but is showing some minor age staining. Runs and Drives Fine (like a 48) with expected minor seepage, looseness, etc. You get the idea, a great looking older original driver, solid body that's loaded with fantastic vintage options! Now as I always say, Not Perfect and Not New (none are) but what a Honest Gem!! Let the 2 Web Pages of detailed photos tell the rest of the tale, Good Day! Paul Harvey!
