Vehicle Detail

The pictures speak for themselves but just as an FYI as to the condition - the clock works perfectly, the original Blaupunkt stereo works perfectly, it has the original windshield, yes it's the original interior and carpet. She is not concourse, but without a doubt show worthy. There are very few low mileage cars left, and this is one of them. 1973 is the last year of the "small bumper" cars and because of all the features and options, is the most sought after year of the 3.0 CS cars. This is definitely one of the finest original CS cars in existence. BTW, I recently took the car on a ~1,100 mile road trip, and didn't experience a single issue. This car is well sorted and can be driven anywhere.

(I'm going to check the bulb) - AC needs charge - Tool box - $400 - could use replacing, it's there but cracked. I have tools although not sure if all of them. See pics for details. - Misc little things I'm forgetting - $500 if the pursuit is perfection. Other than that everything works and is in excellent condition...small list for a 40 year old car...yes its really that nice. You can tell by the bumper rubber, dash and what not that this car has been garaged it's entire life. This is a turn key car and can be driven anywhere without any concerns. It's a spectacular automobile. Lastly took more pics of the maintenance records so you can see the mileage history I have on the car. I have described this vehicle as accurately as I can, but I recommend any potential buyer have the car professionally inspected. I am open to selling the car to over seas buyers. It is the responsibility of the buyer to arrange and pay for shipping. I am open to storing the car for a few weeks while the buyer arranges shipping. I am open to assisting the buyer in the buying process, but you must contact me first before I agree to specifics. Good Luck and happy bidding!

I took a video to show exactly that and have posted it in the Picasa link with the rest of the pictures for all to see. This is not rust appearing from the bottom. There are no bubbles anywhere on the car. There are no signs of rust in any of the common places on this car. The car is spectacular, but also 40 years old. I believe this car has been garage kept, and nice weather driven it's entire life. Also note, I listed the starter was replaced. I actually bought a starter with intentions to replace this weekend, but was unable to get to it. At this point the car will include the new starter, but it may not be installed depending on my schedule. Please note the starter in the car does work, it will not strand you, but it should be replaced at some point. Again, if you want additional pictures or information, please do not hesitate to ask.Good luck bidding on this incredible automobile.On Nov-07-12 at 10:25:16 PST, seller added the following information: Update: I will in fact have the new starter installed in the car for the new owner. Bid with confidence.
