	Opinions This car is NOT happening. Look further down for more options. 64 Deluxe All original car. In Arkansas All handles and hardware are there with the exception of the driver’s vent window. It may be in the trunk. The trunk lock is missing and I got called away before we could open the trunk. Brakes need work before it’s driven very far.

	Depends what you want to do with it, a big expensive job if you want it perfect but looks like it could be put on the road with a relatively small amount of work if you want to keep most of the patina (assuming the chassis is sound and mechanicals basically OK). Personally I would go the oily rag route if it's the right price.

	Arkansas salts their roads. That'll be a world of pain underneath. Pick you one from a gray or white state. Mine's a Mississippi car and the chassis looks brand new, even at the back where the engine oil hasn't reached. --Phil

	'54 Chevy Bel Air Last saw the road in 2017 by the inspection sticker in the window, so perhaps not a bad bet. Any pictures of the passenger side? Pictures are all one side, what's hidden? Second year on the single-piece glass, too; if it's like mine the rear may be laminated also, and slowly delaminating- after all, that car's seen some sunshine.

	With respect to the first car there are bound to be better cars out there. Then again I suppose it depends on what you want from it. If it's to make safe and usable whilst retaining its patina, then remember that the US is a BIG place - there will always be a better one in the next town. Personally I'd buy as structurally sound an example as I could

I guess rear glass is available out there. Waiting for passenger side pics. Widow took photos. 2017 may have been when owner died.
