This is a California survivor and correct Sports Roadster, with original Kelsey-Hayes wire wheels, fiber glass tonneau cover and passenger grab handle. It is a two owner car with the second physician owner having it for the past 12 years. It fires up instantly and runs great. It needs nothing mechanically. Car is 100% complete and all gauges work. Engine is powerful and smooth, accelerates smoothly, shifts properly and does not get hot. Brakes, shocks and suspension are excellent. The cars goes straight with no clunks or rattles. Body is super straight with an older high quality paint job in original color. Options are power windows (all work), power brakes, power steering and power top which works! New battery, oil service and fluids. Clean CA title in hand with current CA registration. This is an extremely rare (only 1427 produced), appreciating classic that is a joy to drive as-is or take it to the next level. Turn heads and get "thumbs up" every time you take it out.
