I was interested in that car when it was at a Mecum auction in 2008.  I'd call it a good 10 footer.  It was restored from a Michigan rot box and a lot of details were not great such as Palco interior panels and a lit under the hood left much to be desired.  Maybe been updated since, but from the pictures, I doubt it.

It's amazing how many former rot box cars cross the auction block these days. I'm sure a high percentage of cars are restored properly. But, many have hidden issues and poor workmanship hiding below pretty paint. Without proper documentation, folks can walk into a disaster.
