Vehicle Detail
This is a very nice one family car since new.The complete drivetrain has been completely rebuilt and has maybe 1000 miles.The car has been stored inside and has zero rust other than surface rust which is very minor on the frame.All of the body mounts, floors, trunk, spare tire well, rockers, body panels are as solid as can be.I've looked this car over from top to bottom and can find no rust.The body is very straight and has had one repaint the original color, it still shines well and is very presentable but does have knicks here and there,the stainless on the right rear has some dents but is very repairable,I've had alot worse straightened and polished.All the doors open and close very well and tight no sag.The glass is very nice and only the drivers door glass and windwing barely show signs of delamination on the edges you would have to be looking for it.All the windows roll up and down as they should windwings are tight felts are all good.This car has factory turn signals on the right side of the column and they work and cancel as they should,all the lights,heater,defroster,map light,wipers all work..The brakes are all new stop very well,the suspension has been gone thru and is very tight drives very straight doesn't wonder and is smooth as glass at 75 mph,The tires are new Coker American Classics.The interior is all new and redone back to stock and is maybe 2 months old.There is California history with this car as it belonged to one of the pioneering families that really helped mold the central valley.This vehicle does not belong to me,It belongs to a customer that is part of the family and does not want to mess with selling it,it was handed down to him and he's not a "car guy".So it was taken out of his garage brought to us we fixed the brake leak it had,and had the upholstery done,and detailed the outside.I've driven this car and it's really amazing how smooth and quiet it is,It starts every morning with 2 pumps on the accelerator.We did not do the restoration on the drivetrain but I can tell you from experience it was done right very nice job.If you have any questions about the car please ask call this number 1-661-333-7557,If you need additional pictures ask and I'll try to make that happen.This is not a concours restored car but a very affordable dependable driver or take it to the next level as alot of the hard work is done.Please understand that there is NO WARRANY OF ANY KIND. This is a 63 year old vehicle so keep that in mind.If you can come and inspect the car in person please do I can put it on a lift so you can see it top to bottom or send a friend or agent.I have described this vehicle to the best of my ability and the information that the owner has given me.If you want to make an offer on the car let me know and I will relay that to the owner as long as it is reasonable.I do have authorization to sell if the offer is good enough.Again my number is 1-661-333-7557 Thanks
