[Staowners] {Spam?} nice '53 Alpine for sale in Illinois

[starcars8 at comcast.net]

It's a Castle/Kneer floor shift conversion so possibly original gear box.   What about no arm rests, wrong seat trim configuration, no crank handle cover, rear bumper tweaked, etc.    But like Bob said, more power to the rest of us.   Pete

Hi Ray and others,

Well, they have a few inaccuracies in their description, Clark Gabel??? Built by Ward Parkway??? It, also has a floor shift so wonder what gearbox is in it or conversion kit used. Gas line to the carb. comes from behind the engine and not from the front...????

In any case, if they get their asking price, ours just took a quantum leap in value!!! :)

Later,
Bob
