This car needs as close to nothing as you can get for an original classic car. The vinyl roof was removed, seam sealer replaced, most of the old glue sanded, prepped and primed for a new top. The top is free of rust, the only rust I have found is what is pictured in the passenger side corner of the deck lid. This car needs the following: A tune up and an oil change. A new vinyl top.Brakes serviced. Small rust hole pictured repaired. Car detailed and Driven. That's it. Original Paint, Original Interior, All matching numbers, Solid Classic Family Mopar. Tires are good, If you want to drive the car home, I would suggest sending it to a local shop for a tune-up, fluid changes, and maybe belts and hoses. I can take it to one and you can pay them with a credit card prior to picking the car up. Or you can have a transport company pick it up, Or just bring you a trailer, Totally up to you. There is no title as it is not required in Georgia on pre 1985 vehicles, HOWEVER You will be provided with a legal state of georgia bill of sale and registration, which any state in the United States should Honor for you to obtain a plate for the car. A nice driving, old mopar that would be great if you just wanted an old car to cruise the family around in on the weekends.
