Vehicle Detail
Just to be clear, this Thing is not mint or perfect. It could use a new paint and there has been some body work on it in the past. It could also use a new front bumper as there is a tow lift. (Bend) In my opinion, I will be conservative and rate it as very good- very fine. I will let the photos speak for themselves. I am selling this as my work schedule will not allow me to enjoy it as I would like to. It has basically just been sitting. I have no more than 100 miles put on this car since I have owned it, that being about 4 years. The farthest trip I have taken it on has been to the local gas station about 5 miles away. It has a new top and window sides, new floor boards, new carburetor, new muffler, new seatbelts, new spirit of America rims and new Cooper Discoverer P 205/75 R15 tires. It starts up everytime for me. For things I have not completed. I have not had a chance to put the new horn in it. It is still in the box. I bought new cables for the heater boxes that have not been installed. There is no windshield wash reservoir. No radio. Antennae is broke. No duct work under the dash, although the defrost hose is placed under the dash to heat the windshield. All the electric (except horn) is functioning. I will mention this in all honesty.The only issue I had has been the right front headlight and back up light. They are working as I am listing this, but once in awhile I have had to remove the fuse and put back in and they would work fine. Maybe just a bad contact or possibly a new fuse holder will correct the issue. I bought a new back up light switch that is still in the box and will be included with extra new parts that I would pick up. (New brake fluid reservoir, fuses, rubber trim between fenders and body). Mileage rolled over. Winning bidder will be responsible for shipping. $500 deposit will be made 24 hours after end of auction with balance paid and cleared within 7 days. Certified bank check or money order. Sale is final as is. No warranty.
