Needs some finish work done on the interior.

The car could use a paint job. I was going to paint it but I figured I’d let the new owner pick the color.
Brake master cylinder needs replacing. I have a new one that comes with the car – It stops just fine but the seals leak.

Really just a few minor issues need to be fixed and you’ll be on the road with a one of a kind hot rod.

Don't be shy, reply. I'm looking for your expert feedback on this car.
I built it for a friend to try and get my hot rod shop off the ground.
Customer lost interest and the rest is history, the shop fund is in the red and I gotta get this car gone and get working on the next project.
If you think I'm way outta line on the price, let me know.
thanks
