This car was in storage for the past 12 years, prior to that $2,500.00 was invested to replace the Master cylinder, power front disc brakes/ rear drum brakes, Control arm bushings, idler arm, center link and a few more items and was a daily driver locally around the downtown area. The starter and solenoid were recently replaced. The car ran every week or two to keep it in running order and to keep the fuel fresh. It needs paint and some metal replaced in the normal spots (normal restoration). It needs a new A/C Compressor (seized), Headliner, Rear bumper (rusted needs re-chrome) and the trunk lip repaired.
