I'm selling this because ALL my tools for my business (Security Alarms) was lost in a fire, plus the van they were in, so after buying all the tools I needed, I have no money left to buy a work van, the money I get for this is the down payment on the van. I don't want to sell it, I love this car, it cruises down the road so smoothly, and gets a LOT of attention, the color on it is just perfect, and with the hidden headlights it just looks so cool. The pictures that are in the parade were from this last September, I have not drove it since then. It had been painted several years ago, don't know how many, they did a good job on it, I can't tell if it has any bondo in the car, but on a car that old it's bound to have some, maybe. I do not see ANY rust, again there could be but I sure don't see any at ALL. It does need a driver door latch, you have to shut it then pull the door to latch it. Has an all rebuilt power steering gearbox, the old one had play in it, not bad play but I like a car that has none, so I replaced it. Also has a brand new radiator. The front seat needs re-upholstered, and it needs carpeting. The dash has no cracks on it that I can find, the door panels are in good shape, all the glass in it is in good shape, the chrome is in good shape, I have seen some discoloration in the front and rear bumper. The hidden headlight system works perfectly, they both go up at the same time. All the lights work on it as far as I know works. Brakes work good on it, tires have LOTS (maybe 85%) tread left on them. The air conditioner worked this summer, but the compressor clutch started messing up, I never did replace it yet, I was going to do that this spring. The 455 runs great, the transmission shifts great as well, I don't see anything wrong with anyone of them. The engine exhaust passenger side does have an small exhaust leak, it just started so I don't know what it is, it's around the exhaust manifold, I'm guessing it's the donut where the pipe bolts on to the manifold. The battery is good, I had not started it since September, and after pumping the gas pedal, it started right up with no problems today. If you are the high bidder of this Toronado, I know you will be very happy with it. If you want more pics I can drive it out of the garage, and take whatever you want. The interior pics were taken this last weekend. On Jan-18-13 at 13:51:46 PST, seller added the following information: It's also missing one beauty ring on the right rear wheel.
