Sounds a bit like a flipper, but he's owned it for a while, so, slow motion flip.

'63 (?) 1800S, no-sale at $36k 16 months ago, resprayed white, titled as a '64

Not real clear when it hit the rotisserie, but it sounds like the only thing left of the original car is the roof and firewall.

After all that time and money, the rear bumper is a bit wonky.
Nice looking car otherwise, but the seller notes some paint 'cracking'.
