Vehicle Detail

Hi everyone this is my daily driver and I'm selling it. It's a great old car and I love it! But I 'm getting a car I love more than this one to drive so this one is going. The car is in great shape but it's not a competition car or anything like that. I want to say that is a really good 7.5 out of ten. The only thing that really I would change in this car really now would be 3 of the 4 shocks (I replaced one at $100 installed) and check the bushings and stuff there in the suspension in the front. Like I said I drive it every day the way it is and I'm fine but I would do this if I was going to keep the car to make it almost perfect. The other thing that needs to be changed is the passenger inside door handle that is broken. I would say that's it. Everything else works even the air even though it's not blowing cold. New alternator, new master cylinder, new motor and transmission mounts, new exhaust and gaskets, nice paint job around $2000.00, new carpets at 500 installed, more than 60% on the tires and almost everything works except what I've listed as non working in my add. Also this car has never been in an accident and has no rust or leaks. The radiator was leaking at some point and I got it fixed. All this car needs is the other 3 shocks changed and doing the bushings that go along with the front suspension work. I got quoted no more than 500 dollars and a day of work at the most to change the shocks and do the front work. But like I said I still drive this every day exactly the way it is. Complete history from owner #1 and me being owner #3 with all original books and keys and all receipts from day one in 1971. Owned for a few months by very famous folk singer Bobby Goldsboro. I'm probably going to loose on this car but the at least 60 drives to Malibu in the last year very easily make up for any monetary loss. Happy bidding and remember NO RESERVE!!!!! Here's a youtube video of me with my girls driving the car on the PCH I would like to add a question someone asked me to the description of the car. Dear eduardorenta, Nice looking ole Coupe,, Is the Ferrari 365 behind it your new baby? - horsepower1 No I've had that old Ferrari longer and it's a 330 GTC actually. My new car is a 1970 280SE that I'm finishing a comprehensive restoration on to make it in to my daily driver. I get that car in about a week so this one has to go as I have no space for more cars. I'm going to share a link if you want to see it if you're into MB. This 250C I'm selling here was a car I found after I knew it would take up to a year on my 280 as a "little side project" I bought this car and it had been in the same family basically for its entire life and well taken care of with all receipts to prove it. It was straight and original but the paint was bad so a put a "decent paint job" 2K and over 3K in different work with receipts and I've achieved what I consider the coolest car you can drive for under 10K. Thanks for your interest, ER http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.427889762325.211735.712802325&type=1 Here's the Ferrari, http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.65112757325.87119.712802325&type=1
