No glass in side or rear windows. Doors are locked from inside (does not have original door handles) However they could be installed later. I bought a couple years ago and it has been stored in my garage ever since. I had major health issues so it took a long time to repair and to fix most everything that i felt it needed. Been working on it for the past 6 months. I live on a very busy paved frontage road and vehicle is not licensed for street use. I did not put insurance nor tags on vehicle as i had decided to sell it. Plus everyone on this highway drive at high speeds. It does have a bonded title that i obtained recently. VIN number and a clean title. I have drove it in my front area lawn recently and a few blocks on the highway carefully not to get run over. However it does not have turn signals installed yet or mirrors. It should be mechanically safe to drive on the highway once turn signals and mirrors are installed. I bought to take to Car Shows to display it and to sell car parts. It was never intended to be a daily driver. It was going to be on a trailer pulled to most shows. But being sick all of these plans went to hell. However i think whomever purchases it might consider it to be a daily driver. Someone can redo the inside to make it more comfortable. It is a rat rod and a lot of work has gone into it. Have fun finishing it to the way that you want it. Throw some paint on it and turn it into a hot rod. I prefer the rusty old look myself. NOTE: $1000 DEPOSIT must be paid within 24 hours of sale. REMAINING purchase price must be in CASH upon pick up of vehicle at my location. NO RESERVE
