Presenting Car 1254,
the Annexmaster's very own
1978 Phaeton


 

Car 1254 was bought by the Annexmaster (Don) in 2001. I am reluctantly selling her now in anticipation of moving to California toward the end of this year. Unfortunately, to be exempt from the strict pollution testing requirements, a car has to be 1975 or older. My car is a 1978, so I will replace it with an older Glassic as soon as I get to California.

For MANY other pictures, both current and older are in this link to the  ALBUM

Here are some of the features / goodies on this car.

  • Alloy wheels, larger tires (original size steel wheels, wheel covers can be included if you want them)

  • Hard top with sunroof. (Original top and frame still available if you want them. - top has been in the attic. condition unk.)

  • Rebuilt Ford 302 V-8 engine. Actually the second rebuilt engine. The first one, before I bought the car had an impressive build-parts list included - and then it threw a rod through the oil pan. The second one seems fine and has low miles on it.

  • Second rebuilt engine installed at 33,200 miles. Car now has 40,500 miles.

  • Newer Edelbrock Performer 4 barrel carb. Edelbrock intake manifold, Edelbrock Valve covers.

  • Pollution stuff removed.

  • Rebuilt transmission a few years ago (AAMCO)

  • Oversized water pump.

  • Chrome alternator, A/C compressor.

  • Plexiglass windows to keep in the air conditioning.

  • Under car LED's - multi colors.

  • Musical horn under the car.

  • Siren under the car (yelp and single pitch)

  • Etched wind wings.

  • Both bumpers were replaced with  new ones since I have had the car.

  • Air conditioner/heater replaced. No big box at the driver's feet.

  • Radiator was re-cored

  • Easy-to-remove hood side panels

  • Newer gas gauge.

  • Capable of running the under car lights and other "goodies" from a portable battery, OR from the car battery. (for shows)

  • Battery cutoff with key under the front seat.

This car is not a show car. I intended it to be a pleasure car I could drive anywhere, and I have done that. She is no trailer queen. You can drive this car home if you want (and can afford the gas!).

Note: Photos and articles about this car will remain on my website after the sale.
