If cheap enough then it may be ok. Otherwise looks like lipstick on a pig! Chrome is awful, paintwork is average with rust appearing and the RH door is a mess.
I still want one sometime, ok with the B20 in there but also with an overdrive manual trans.

'64 PV, Retail Red, right presentable.

I'm not a fan of fussy interiors on PVs, but this is nicely done.

This isn't something you see every day on one of these, unless it's a RestoRacer.
https://bringatrailer.com/wp-content/up ... -78278.jpg
Went to $10k minutes after it went live.
Oopsie; that poor old Chevy truck has been listed a t Capital about a dozen times; it brings less each trip.
This is the PV of interest, hammered for $23k. Probably well-bought. You couldn't restore one for that money.

Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.
Also -> Amazon link. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!
