Vehicle Detail
I am the 3rd owner of this beautiful car. I purchased this in Fargo, North Dakota from a surgeon who purchased this from a family friend some 30 years before. The original owner was also a doctor from Fargo. The day he purchased this car, the first owner drove it to his country club where he was a member, and the person I purchased it from who was a very young man at the time actually parked the car for the doctor. That young man was hooked on this car. Years later, when the origional owner passed away, the 2nd owner purchased the car from from the widow. I bought the car in 2005 and have enjoyed it ever since. The 2nd owner indicated that he has never touched the car. I have had body shops review the paint and they have also told me it all appears to be original. The interior is excellent and the car runs and drives very nicely. Air conditioning does not blow cold. There is a very small area behind the driver’s door where the 2nd owner brushed against the garage. There is also very fine checking in the paint because of its age. Anyone who knows the history of these cars will not need to re-read all of the history that typically is included when a seller lists one. This is of course very rare.
