I’m not convinced this is actually a complete vehicle, given it appears the front driveline is missing.  If the lift was reduced significantly, as well as the price, then the chances of a sale will likely increase.  On the plus side, the body/hood/fenders look straight and the engine has been nicely fitted into the engine compartment.

While lacking polish, this M-38 appears very complete.  I’m not sure where it’s located, but if you are interested you can find out more at Classiccars.com.
