donc j'ai finalement trouvé mon auto (et le style d'américaine que je souhaitais posséder)
une New Yorker Sedan Deluxe de 1954,
elle est pour le moment en Oregon.
voici l'annonce d'origine de craiglist:
This is a car that has been in the family since 1956.
It was originally owned by the owner of Stouts auto dealership in Oregon City (across the street from Tony's Fish Market).
My dads uncle bought it in 1956.
It is all original including 70,000 miles.
Everything works including the AM radio (fixed two years ago).
The brakes need to be relined.
Wheel cylinders were replaced, but there is a leak somewhere and the linings grab sometimes, and are probably from the sixties.
While not shown in the pictures, the original hub caps are also included.
It has been garaged most of it's life, very little rust.
The gas tank has been cleaned and sealed on the inside.
The good stuff:
331 cid Hemi.
2 speed powerflite transmission (on the column).
Duel exhaust
Duel point stock distributor.
New tires
This is a time machine for those that know the era, it seems like those were better days.
And it's a car you can work on.
Our life is changing and this car needs a good home for the next 60 years of it's life.
Elle a été inspectée sur place, j'ai eu un dossier photos et vidéo,
et j'ai donné le go.
J'ai eu confirmation de l'achat pour mon compte hier en début d'aprem :pouet:
Là elle est chez un mécano,
on va voir pour cette histoire de frein, vidange moteur/boite/pont et ldr,
et on verra si je peux profiter de faire des choses sur place selon le budget restant.
Va falloir être patient maintenant,
j'ai hâte de la voir, de l'entendre, de la toucher et de la sentir :silly:
