Vehicle Detail
One owner car. 83,400 original miles and has definitely NOT turned over. Always garaged and looks nearly new. Clear Washington State title. 5 new Hankook tires in the correct, original size. New fuel pump, new filters, new fluids, new shocks, new timing chain, new water pump, new exhaust parts, new gas gauge, new brakes, and a full tune up. I have all records for the work I had done in 2013 as well as work done going back almost 30 years. She runs like a charm and starts up right every time. Quiet and smooth 318 Poly engine with more power than you'd expect. Easy, tight steering. You can drive this car with a pinky finger.One unusual feature - a light on the left turn signal to indicate when you're driving with a lead foot; it gets brighter the more you floor it to indicate fuel usage. Ahh, the gasoline shortages of the 1970s. Truly a car of its time. They made hundreds of thousands of them back in the day but where have they all gone? The poorer cousin of the Cordoba, identical frame and mechanicals. First year of manufacture for the "new, mid-size Fury". Historical car. Tried-and-true B-body Mopar.I've no question in my mind you can drive this car home no matter where in North America you need to go. Everything was gone through. Battery still under warranty. So's the exhaust. What people throw away is what becomes most valuable. Think of the Chevelle versus the Eldorado! Interest in 1970s cars continues to grow. Other B-bodies of the era such as the Sebring, Challenger, Charger, Coronet and so on are selling for $50K and more - in some cases, much more. 15 years ago, people would have called you crazy if you had predicted that.What will this car be worth in 5 years? Plenty more than today. They sure aren't making any more like this one. And unlike a lot of the other B-bodies I mentioned, this one was never whipped, never raced, never restored, never messed with. You can restore an automobile as many times as you like, but they're only original once. I just bought a Reatta and I need the garage space which is why I have decided to part with her. I do have some urgency in listing her at this time but am not desperate to sell. Nevertheless, I have set an extremely reasonable reserve to help her along.Another of my sons is about to get his driver's license and he is very fond of the car. It would be a shame to put it in a teenager's hands... save this seldom-seen example of Detroit's history.LOL!On Jul-22-14 at 09:31:45 PDT, seller added the following information: In response to a bidder question I am guaranteeing the condition of the front seat. If it's not flawless as I represent in this auction, I will absolve you of responsibility for the auction. I have left the cover on to keep the conditon original and prevent wear.
