VIN: N106755CAL
Narrative from the seller's family:
When my dad was 14 years old, he bought this car. He was born in 1941 and bought the can in 1955. Therefore, it’s been in my family forever. He changed the color several times, he changed the engine a couple of times. He was always tinkering with it and believed it was made to be driven. It was blue when he bought it, he painted it red then orange. It was bought in Long Beach CA. It was in Orange County, Big bear lake then Utah. He was entered in weekly car shows and it has gone to 100s of car shows over the years. He was in the Big Bear Lake antique car club in Calif and the Beehive Model A Club in Utah. He loved parades and driving it in the parades and especially enjoyed fun runs and just driving it. He converted the rumble seat to a trunk and added a gas tank in the trunk and changed the standard transmission to a hydrostatic one for longer trips. This car was his pride and joy and he babied it and cared for it. It was always garaged and never driven in the rain or even when the weather was or could turn bad.
