A true vintage muscle car in near prime condition. It needs someone who knows how to treat it right! To the best of my knowledge, I am the third owner of this car and I bought it in 2008. I have been driving this car daily for well over two years and it has served me well. Just went through its first Buffalo winter with no special tires and no troubles with starting or making it through the snow and ice. Just not enough passenger room for me and I really don't need the cargo space. What I need is for the car to go to someone who really sees the beauty it can be and how little work is needed to get it there. The engine (small V8), transmission (automatic) and everything on the car is stock except tires (new in 2010) and the carburetor, which is Edelbrock. (Not sure if I'm spelling that right) Anyway, it got whacked in the parking lot so it now has its one and only dent (pictured, but not very well) in the left front. The bed is so tight, I have a swimming pool to drain every time we get a downpour! There is wear on the seat covers, particularly on the driver's side. Pulled on the passenger door pull too hard and it came loose, but I have the part to fix it. Wheel covers lock and I have the key. Paint needs a refresh, a/c needs charged, wiper motor new but does not work on delay (that cost a couple hundred extra and, well, you know!). Cassette player, power windows, power locks, cruise control - all good. Drives like a dream and gets lots of attention on the street! Service Engine light has been on since I bought it. Some trouble with the flywheel and probably will need work done eventually on the exhaust, particularly if you live in a state that requires inspections. Oklahoma doesn't. I've had what work done on it I can afford but nothing toward really restoring it as that is waaaaaaay out of my price range! I hope you like the looks of it. I don't know what else to say. I can take more pics, if you want. Thanks for looking!
