Vehicle Detail
Condition is very good considering the age. I was told the car was restored approximately 2-3 years ago. It was painted a very nice deep grey color however grey is not the original color. The original color was a orange/yellowish color. The car runs great, starts easy, and idles nice. The transmission and clutch are smooth. I was told a new battery and fuel pump were installed last year. Undercarriage is clean, straight and solid. The euro sport tires are in very good condition. Chrome bumpers show well. The convertible top is in good condition minus a couple patches. New rubber floor mats front and rear. The bad : Missing head rests and front seat belts. Very small oil leak from engine compartment. This is a one owner car. I bought this car from my neighbor who was the original owner. He is 96 years old and has become visually impaired hence the reason he sold me the car. He would have never sold me the car if he could still drive. I've had the car a month now and have since decided it's not my style hence the reason I'm selling it. Car will be sold with original clear Massachusetts title and bill of sale. Shipping arrangements and fees will be the buyer's responsibility. I prefer someone come see the car in person, visually inspect it and make a deal. If you have any questions don't hesitate to contact Pete @ 413-455-7001. I've done my absolute best to describe this car. It is a very nice solid car that needs very little to be a nice daily driver. I can tell you the original owner loved this car and always maintained it. I would consider trades up or down for another classic car.
