History
Mercy hospital in Nampa, Idaho used to be in charge of a community sale to help fund the hospital. Every year a person from the hospital would procure a car for the event. After the car arrived in town all of the businesses would take part in a full restoration.
The story is this car was obtained in Canada from the original owners family.
The body was in pristine condition showing very little rust and everything was original, some of the insurance documents from Canada are with this vehicle.
The car was then treated to a frame off restoration.
Everything was polished, re-plated, replaced.
The numbers matching engine was rebuilt by the local NAPA store.
The transmission was also done by a local transmission shop.
All new glass and seals everything on this car was touched!
The current owner won the car in the raffle in 1999.
Since that time the car has spent most of the last 12 years covered up in his garage only driving the car 800 miles since the raffle.
Vehicle was imported to QLD in 2011, sold and purchased in 2018. Although some mods have been fitted all original parts have been retained.
