Vehicle Detail

Beautiful car. The ultimate "Beach Car". Been sitting in my garage for years, haven't started her in 6 months. Really runs good. Partially restored, only 104,000 miles. Full power 425 engine w/factory air, factory cruise control (still works) power windows, wind-wings, seats, cornering lights, 12 disc CD, beefed up cooling system for parades. Too much to list. NADA list poor Condition $11,500, medium $21000 and restored $31000. Am starting the bid @ $6995. I bought her 7 or 8 years ago. I'm sure everything is legit on the car (numbers match etc). The guy who installed my new top told me that the 104,000 mileage was "NOT" rollover because the interior was original. I replaced the top and the top motor (a hydraulic line is leaking right now). I replaced the windshield and I had the transmission overhauled less then 5000 miles ago. No rust from what I have been able to see. Car has stayed in my garage since I've owned her. I put in a 12 disk CD player and new speakers, oil pressure, temperature and battery gauges. Oh, had an air condition guy look at it...The compressor is fine but the air conditioner needs some kind of internal switch (he said 300 dollars). The car has electronic ignition, no points or condenser. The carburetor was rebuilt less then 1000 miles ago. The electric windows work slow but okay but the electric wind wings do not. I'm not sure, I think the electric seats work two out of the three directions. I replaced one of the two cornering lights and sockets/frame. I put in a heavy duty double fan for parades and I went to duel exhaust. The rubber (doors, windows and top) needs replacing (car leaks everywhere during rain). The tires are very good, almost new. I also like the fender skirts. The handbook is the original. I Believe the car originally (in 1965) belong to a doctor in Oklahoma. I learned from research that there are approx. 60 of these cars left (1965 Electra convertibles) and that mine has many rare factory options such as the cornering lights, wind wings and factory cruise control. The asking bidding price is really, really good, too good, so I have been told. I haven't started her in 6 months but spray the carburetor and charge the battery and she starts right up.
