Vehicle Detail

I just acquired this beauty. I don't have the time to give her to restore her back. The previous owner did alot of work on this car. It's a 95HP/Auto with 99K on it and with care will possibly go another 99K.Engine = rebuilt carbs, wires, plugs, cap & rotor, air cleaner, fuel pump, coil belt, balancer & seal, "O" rings, valve cover gaskets, pan gasket, muffler donuts, good exhaust (very quite). New heater hoses and lower shroud thermostats. Trans/Diff = transmission was flushed (not converter) and filter checked and cleaned, new fluids for bother and are quite, shift smoothly with no gear noise or whining. Very smooth and tight. Brakes = rebuilt master cylinder, steel line in the rear as well as rubber, pads all around have plenty of life, front cross member replaced with solid 65, new shocks (all around) idler are, pitman arm bushing and tires. Front bearings cleaned and repacked, rears quite with no unusual vibrations or whine. Body/Interior = The body on this car is extremely solid. Floors are original and solid. drivers side door has about a 2" rust hole from what appears to have been a small hit at one time but not serious. What you see is surface rust and discoloration. Body interior color combination is pretty. Interior is all original and 98% perfect (years of dirty pant seats have left their mark. Dash is incredible (crisp and clean). All glass is clean with no chipping and front windshield is tinted. Door panels are perfect and windows roll up and down smoothly. wind noise while driving is almost nil .As mentioned above, this is a true daily driver that has never let me down. I've driven it in all kinds of weather and it performs beautifully. Does not leak when it rains and there are NO fowl odors with the heat or defrost on or with "AIR" down which all cables work smoothly. There is this neat after market manual windshield sprayer in the truck with the pump lever under the dash. It needs a bag but would bet it works. Guessing this was dealer install, but has never seen one before. This car would only need slight bodywork and paint to be a show winner. It will give you years of enjoyment as a daily as well but deserves to be painted. As far what I can see the runs fine and just needs some TLC. Currently the speedometer was disconnected and was told by the original owner he was in the process of connecting it. It also needs carpeting. Only concern I have with her is that she drips oil but its not uncommon for a car her age. I've driven her far distances at speeds of 60-65mph. She has a smooth ride. Her floor boards and underneath are in really good shape with minimal rust. It passed NJ inspection. The car is sold as is.
