Second comment....
This must have been an amazing feat, since there is no carburetor... not to mention, that it is a 1965 or later vintage Chevrolet engine. From the acorn shells on the side of the engine, who knows how many squirrels have been calling this hearse home for how many years!!! Nothing wrong with that engine, that $3500 rebuild, and a few more hundred dollars for the missing parts to complete the engine. Then, we don't know what, if anything, the engine is coupled with. Might just be an engine without a transmission, driveshaft, etc.. Save your money and find a better car that hasn't been molested!

The seller is dreaming Paul is right you have no idea what you are buying. If you have enough mental issues to want to attempt this. Your only hope is to get a 52 Pontiac parts car. The front fenders and hood have been customized so the headlights are messed up the hood is filled no Silver Streak or front molding no grill bumper and guards. At least with a parts car you get a motor transmission rear steering column etc. Who knows whats been cobbeled into it. The only redeeming quality of the coach is it rarity and the fact all the parts needed for the resto are reasonable in price and available readily.
The rear vent windows were common on the two doors with all of them I have a few pictures of both a economy and a armbruster that are set up like this. I do know were a parts car with a compleat running gear sits. But he is dreaming or his wife told him he had to sill it.
I figured that there would be other comments. most of which I thought.
Ed, thanks for the past pic and clarification - at least down to two - Economy or Armbruster.
Well, at least he took the masking tape off the side flat glass for a better pic.

Yes, Economy. Its been for sale off and on for at least 8 years now, and looks worse everytime its posted.
It would sell if it was priced right. The old rod in need of everything being redone is just not worth running condition price
