I bought this car with the intent of getting it back on the road. Unfortunately my plans have changed. The reason I bought the car is due to the low mileage and the fact that it is almost completely rust free. I have included a lot of pictures to try to show this. While on the subject, the rust is a silver dollar sized bubble on the rocker behind the driver side front wheel. The previous owner was in love with the car, but his marriage forced him to store it (inside) for approximately 10 years. The car is not currently running. Before I bought it, I turned the crank only about an eigth inch to make sure it was not locked up. Once home, I used a flashlight to look in each cylinder and all were shiny. I next filled each cylinder with oil and let the car sit for a week. I then changed the oil and filter and turned the car over with the plugs out. Everthing sounded as it should turning over , but there was no fuel pump noise. That was 6 months ago and I haven't touched it since due to some financial problems. The vinyl top was deteriorated and has been removed . The frame is there and good. The seats are leather. The backs are good and the bottoms are useable, but not as nice as the backs. Tires are shot, but hold air. The front valance is missing. All 5 wheels are in nice shape. The spare is in the pictures and has some sort of residue on it. Glass beading should clean it up. The wheels shown on the car are in very respectable condition. As you can see the trunk has no rust through. (rare) It had a radio that was removable, but it was not with the car when I got it. Door panels are partially disconnected, but in good shape. The exhaust system appears to be in very useable condition. In my experience, bodywork and rust are the enemy. Mechanicals are cheaper and easier in the long run. Please ask questions. Thanks
