Usually rarity alone is what makes a car special, but not in this case. This particular example is special because it is a true survivor car! This car was in storage for over three decades before we came into its possession recently. With that in mind, there are a few issues with the car. The paintwork is showing its age, appearing with a dull finish and chips missing throughout the body. There is also surface rust on multiple areas along the body of the car, however the car appears to be very solid. The trim work on the car is in similar condition, with the rear bumper having surface rust and pitting, the front bumper has pitting and the rest of the exterior brightwork could use some TLC. The interior of the car is in good shape for its age and time spent in storage but again is not without its issues. Specifically the seats in a few areas are splitting at the stitching and there is some pitting on the trim rings around the gauges. The gauges faces themselves are still in fantastic shape. The top and side curtains are in amazing shape for their age, with no visible issues and only some minor blemishes. Mechanically the car does not run or drive, and the engine does not currently turn over, we have put some Marvel's Mystery Oil into the cylinders in order to free them up. The wheels on the car are in good shape for their age, with only surface rust being an issue. The tires on the car still hold air, however because of the length of storage time, it's recommended that they be replaced. Overall this is a wonderful example of a true survivor car. It's ready for a complete restoration or even just getting it running and leaving it as is.
