Vehicle Detail
· Original paint (95%), chrome, and leather interior · All electronics, etc work: cold A/C, warm heat/defrost, all lights/lamps, power steering, cassette player, AM/FM radio (manual windows and locks) · New brakes at 50,700mi · New tires at 50,700mi · OEM bunt wheels refinished at 50,700mi · New head gasket at 51,000mi · At 51,800mi · New resonator · New front pipes · New shifter bushings · New rocker springs · Valve adjustment · Carb adjustment · Cooling system fix · State inspection on October 28, 2011 (52,100mi) · Regapped sparks · Adjusted carb and ignition timing · Full service and tune-up at 52,300mi · Oil and filter change · Fluids, lube locks, hinges, antenna, battery, belts, lights, wipers, tire pressure, suspension, brakes, clutch, exhaust · Left heater hose replaced Here are the flaws I know of (all are minor): Along the body there are tiny imperfections and markings that can hardly be seen in photos; the threading around windows is fraying a bit in some places; there is a very small amount of surface rust under chrome of driver rear wheel well; the driver seat has two thin small tears, and there is some minor interior discoloring by the back windows (see photos). This car runs and drives great, with low original miles. The passenger and back seats look brand new. It is very clean and solid underneath and rust-free. As noted above, it is a rare-in-the-USA 4 speed. The doors and trunk sound extremely solid. I have all receipts for the above-mentioned work and have garaged the car every night. The title is clear and clean. *I have had two mechanics go out of their way to comment on the good condition under the hood and underneath.
