Would you answer the second part of my previous question pertaining too a Driving Video before the Bidding ends ! Are there any leaks that are present to the oil pan or Transmission that you are aware of while doing a undercarriage inspection ? I won't bid on it until you provide answers to my questions ? Thanks !
Is there a wiper motor in the car. Most inspection require wipers to work. Anything else that should be noted. Rust on the frame?
So If you get caught in the rain when your out and about, What you just pull over and wait till the rain stops ? That makes absolutely no sense at all ?? Will you provide a Driving video, just to see how it handles at different speeds and smooth braking ! Any leaks from the oil pan, transmission, ect. Was this a frame off Restoration, doesn't appear to have been ?
No wipers because it doesn't get driven in the rain. But the brackets for mounting is there. The paint surface is pristeen. Chrome is original. no dents.
Why in the world doesn't it have working wipers ? Are there any dents in the chrome pieces on the body ? How is the paint Quality? Dents or scratches, or chips ? I appreciate all the pictures and videos you took the time to send ! Ted !!
