Gasoline

Odometer shows 25541 miles which unfortunately can’t be verified but people I bought it from said it is real miles. Body shows like real miles and brake and accelerator pedals show it too. Dash pad is original and looks like new. Title shows “NA” on miles as car was registered in daughters name in 2004 to facilitate distribution of estate assets. The body is very solid and reflects the lack of usage. There is no bondo anywhere and nothing that even resembles a dent. The bumpers are very good but there is chrome that needs to be done. On the drivers side there is a piece of trim missing from the rear fender but other than that everything else is there. Car runs and drives as well as shifts good. It even stops now that I replaced all wheel cylinders and shoes. When I took off drums they looked like new inside. They were smooth as silk. Has new gas tank . Car needs to be unassembled and gone through completely. All rubber is bad as was stored from 1985 until now. Paint is OK on most of body but either needs to be color sanded and clear coated or completely repainted. Interior was redone in 1985 in leather and shows very well. Carpet needs replacing. All power windows work. There is no top but all top framing is there. Exhaust system needs complete replacement. The expensive stuff is all there. If someone did most of the work themselves I think between 20 and 30K more would make it a 100 to 150K car. I believe it would be closer to 20. It is for sale locally as well as on other internet sites so I reserve the right to end this auction early.

I have no experience in restoring cars and have been told by others who know better they think it would cost a lot less. If you are interested in the car the best thing to do is call me and I will do a walk around of the car with you on the phone and tell you specifically anything you want to know about it as well as give you as good a description of it as I can.
