While looking for parts I came across this 41 for sale and although the price is hefty it is sure to provide a smile if you review all the pictures. Located in Madison, Wis.

I don't know... The seller states: "Just completed. Everything restored back to original factory specification." No it's not, and not everything... Is this another one of those "for sale" builds? Maybe a good one, but still... He's got the correct style radiator hose clamps at the large hoses, but the good-old gear worm ones on the heater hoses. Why? Is the carpet molding supposed to be screwed to the floor like that, on a 41? 🤨

Also, is there any particular reason the body was not repainted/undercoated/oiled from the bottom? 🤔

 

I know, I am being rather picky here, but for the asking price and the aforementioned "everything restored" condition, I have many questions.

Ivan, I don't believe it was a body off restoration to factory specifications either and there is plenty I could pick apart on it as well. People can ask whatever price they want hoping to get well over what something is worth to you or me. I just enjoyed it for the opportunity to view all the pictures, liked the color, the interior and body lines on the 41 body of the 3-window coupe, and it shows them nicely IMO.  It was free to look at with no crowds or admission fee so I posted it up for the pictures and nothing more. 🙂

Makes sense, thanks for sharing :)

I would say it could be useful to save the pics for later reference, but it is not done to factory specs... I usually save pics of non-restored original cars/parts to know what I need to aim for, later on.
