Vehicle Detail
This is a 1970 Olds Ninety-Eight with 123,000 miles. It was previously owned by a fire chief who took great care of this car. He only used it to haul his boat, so there are a few towing modifications. I have garaged the car and babied it since I bought it. It runs and drives great and I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere. However, the rear end needs repaired. No reserve, so the highest bidder drives it home. The GOOD: -New tires, new brakes, new battery, and new fluids less than 5,000 miles ago.-455 Rocket engine that runs nice. Cherry bomb exhaust.-Transmission shifts great.-No rust, except for some surface rust on the trunk lid.-Power steering and power brakes work perfect-Interior is near mint...no wear to the upholstery. Headliner is perfect.-Heating and cooling system, blowers, and all controls work perfect. A/C was recharged recently.-Power windows and power seats work.-All lights, flashers, dash lights and signals work.-Missing a hubcap, but I have two extras included in the auction.-Mods for pulling a trailer - air shocks in back, heavy duty hitch, trailer brakes setup.-LOUD vintage fuzz buster radar detector.-Doors open and close smoothly and all latches work (except trunk) The BAD:-Rear end needs repaired. I got rear ended by a drunk on the interstate who fled the scene. Doesn't affect the car's ability to drive.-Clock works but doesn't keep time.-Radio works most of the time but occasionally cuts in and out.-Gas gauge doesn't work most of the time. This is a 44 year old car. I have described the car accurately and honestly. It is sold AS IS. The Olds is currently parked in my friend's garage in Adel, IA. The buyer will be responsible for picking it up. I would like the car to be picked up within 3 weeks of the end of the auction. If you want it shipped, you need to make the arrangements. I accept Paypal for payment. I would also accept cash or cashier's check in person when you come to pick up the car, but I require a $500 down payment through Paypal within 3 days of the auction ending if you plan to do it this way.
