I sure could use some expert advice on this so called 47 Champion convertible on ebay. I think it's a 48. Also, I really don't think it's 22k miles, more like 122k. The seller has 2 other cars and only believes what is showing on the odometer.
I like this car a lot...but... The top is junk, and seat covers are bad. Grille is missing the upper part where the signals should be. Those items don't scare me, as I know I can get a local guy to do the top & seats. The grille part might be hard to get? I could live with the existing paint and bent bumpers for now. But! I want to use the car a lot around town this season.
There appears to be rot at the right cowl vent. The rest looks rotfree.
Please pick this car apart and help me with a fair approximate value in real world pricing. Would this car w/OD get fair gas mileage? Are these good road cars by 1948 standards? Thanks for your time
