Nice '62 409 Bel Air Bubbletop

No mention of whether the 409's original, so I'm assuming it is not.

It's marketed as an older restoration, but still looks pretty gorgeous judging by the pics.

Seller could have found a better backdrop than a sea of Prius in a parking lot...weird.

Amazing how cheap tires can practically ruin the most beautiful car of the ‘60’s.

I agree radial tires is one of my pet peeves. I also agree a good driver just needs a number of corrections, tach is wrong should have 6K redline, heater hose crossover is missing, hood insulation doesn't belong on any Belair it was Impala only, radiator isn't even close to right plus it has a finger guard, no choke tube, master cylinder wrong, seat covers missing the colored rectangles, wheels are later years, tach wire through the firewall in wrong place so it wasn't a 4 speed car. Not saying it isn't a good car it just needs some time and money spent on it.
