We found this car behind a new car dealership about 5 miles from our home in central Washington State. The salesman of course told us that it was all original (miles, paint, etc.). Upon closer inspection we realized that it is an older re-paint and nicely done. There is a bubble under the paint on the hood that there is a picture of but it's hard to see (not very big). The car has new tires, the top and boot appear to be reasonably new within the last few years (they look good). This car needs a detail, some minor oil leaks repaired, needs a new correct oil dipstick. the convertible top motor makes noise, but doesn't do anything. there are several other minor issues that need attention. This car seems to have been parked for a long time and tinkered with occasionally. the odometer reads around 73,000 miles (may or may not be correct). this is a really cool, reasonably rare ride that runs good and goes down the road smoother than a La-Z-Boy with a steering wheel! I figured by the serial number that it is a 400 V8 although I have not ran the engine serial number. We don't have the time or the facilities to do this car justice, so we have driven and enjoyed it as is and gotten a lot of stares and thumbs ups! I wish I knew more about the history, originality, and authenticity of this vehicle, but unfortunately buying it from a dealer does not give much history.
