Vehicle Detail

NO RESERVE!!! NO RESERVE!!! NO RESERVE!!! This is a low miles number matching car! When I bought it it had been standing for many years, the previous owner worked on the car and then lost interest. I have spent a lot of time and money in restoring it to what it looks like today. Comes with AC, power steering, electric windows, cruise control THE GOOD Brakes have been done including new calipers, rotors and pads, as well as master cylinder. Driveshafts have been done. Just fitted brand new Monroe Sensa-Trac shocks front and rear Brand new Hankook 225/70/15 tires all round sitting on sought after Rally rims. Beauty rings and centre caps all present. Interior completely re-done/replaced, including brand new dash, carpets, leather seat covers and rear storage compartments. All other parts have been cleaned up and freshly paintedNew rubber mats Frame (and underside of the car have been restored using the correct products from Eastwood Beautiful mirrored T-tops are in very good condition Badging has been removed and restored to new Converted to electronic choke New radiator hose, cap, coolant reservoir New thermostat New spark plugs Oil just changed - driven around the block 3 times since All belts replacedJust replaced valve cover gaskets as there was a very slight sweating and it helped with fitting the new breatherBrand new all weather fitted car cover Currently in the process of converting the headlights from vacuum to electric, I have all the parts for the upgrade, as well as the headlight rebuild kit. (the headlight buckets have been removed from the car as can be seen in the pics)Also the power antenna has been removed to replace the broken mast THE BAD Body is in pretty good condition but does need paint work, I'm leaving that for the new owner as they may like to change color, and also so you can see the condition, nothing hidden There is a crack in the body on the driver fender next to the hood about 3 inches long, all intact though, minor and easy to repair Windshield is cracked Some wiring needs completing as there are some plugs I have no idea what to connect them to Weather strips are all present but will need to be replaced AC needs some work, it was stripped from the car previously, but has been re-installed together with sourcing parts that were missing at the time Car runs and drives currently, motor runs really well. This will be a beautiful car and worth a lot more money once completed! * ADD - Last time I started it it will run while giving gas, but won't idle, something must have come loose on the carb I assume. I would love to finish this and enjoy driving it, however I have too many projects on the go and do not have the time to continue. NO RESERVE!!! NO RESERVE!!! NO RESERVE!!! BID TO WIN!!! GOOD LUCK!!! Clear Florida title. Deposit of $250 within 24 hours of auction end. Balance due in cash or bank check within 72 hours. Buyer is responsible for shipping, I am happy to assist loading the vehicle once paid for in full. Car is being sold as-is.
