Surprised this has not sold yet. Issues or price too high??

I think it is because it isn’t really being advertised.

Anyone know this car?

Zman, I don’t know the car, but the seller has some pics of the restoration work in his FB profile photos. Been available off and on for quite a while. I’ve also heard that Darrell can be difficult to get in touch with.
