While you guys were beating on each other or helping me figure out what this was, interested buyers began to hit me up with private messages.
I thank you all for your feedback, historical knowledge of the hobby and general interest in the situation. It should interest you all to know that the seller completely melted when she realized how fast her late husband's former passion was gone and that the selling of his car was no longer an item on her widow "To Do List". It was odd to think of my wife being in her shoes one day, God willing. Bitter sweet, for sure.

Mike,
Congrats to you and the widow on the sale. It really is a good looking car and I'm sure the new owner will enjoy it for quite some time. Hopefully, all the bickering over this car kept it on the front page long enough to help establish a fair price and an appreciative buyer. If it happens to end up in Oregon, I would be willing to help out with some of the finishing items to complete the car if the new owner is interested.
Bob
