It looks to have the original complete interior. Do you have other "close up shots" of the burb? | | | | | Joined: Jun 2008 Posts: 1,388 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jun 2008 Posts: 1,388 | That's just terrible. Tell you what, why not drop it off here at my place?
It's beautiful. I love that front radiator guard, and the roof mount spot light, you just don't see those much anymore. | | | | | Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 Extreme Gabster | | Extreme Gabster Joined: May 2001 Posts: 7,438 | I love it.

Just the usual stuff. Changed spark plugs, oils, wires, radiator cap,hoses, heater hoses, brake hoses, rebuilt the master cylinder, and clean the gas tank. Still have to do the wheel cylinders cylinders and brake shoes. The guy I bought it from had bought it in 1963 from a town nearby and used it to take his kids hunting. It had been parked outside since 1992.
Yea its pretty rust free. Pretty dry out here in New Mexico.

I can't beleive how straight and rust free that 'burb is,if that had been here it would have dissolved into a pile of rust about thirty years ago!
You're right Chris, New Mexico's weather is really kind to old iron!
Great find.
