I have owned the vehicle for 15 years and it was restored over the last 5 years. The paint job is decent “Driver Quality” paint, original color. Before the car was restored the body was actually fairly rust free except for the lower rear quarters and above wheel well so new lower quarters and wheel wells were installed. Did a front disc brake conversion, replaced original slant 6 engine with a low mileage 318 V-8 engine and transmission out of a 1976 Dodge Dart and installed dual Flowmaster exhaust which gives it a nice throaty sound. The steering and brakes are actually manual but with the original bigger steering wheel and the disk brake there is no need for either to be power. Professionally re-done interior and top with seats and console from a late model Chrysler LeBaron. The seats are extremely comfortable to sit in even on longer trips. All gages, speedometer, heater and windshield wipers work fine. It has Torq Thrust II wheels and Cooper Lifeliner Classic II tires with approximately 10k miles. This has been a blast to drive to the auto parts store, Saturday night out, old car cruises and shows and receives comments wherever I go. Don’t see them often but it’s surprising how many people do recognize the vehicle their dad had one, had one in high school, as a kid neighbors had one. They’re somewhat rare, not many restored, very unique. It’s only driven it in the summer, usually with the top down, of course, and put in storage for 6 months out of the year. It's been very reliable and gets excellent mileage on long trips. I hate to part with it but I have several other older vehicles and need to thin the herd.
