I've invested about $2000.00 into the vehicle, plastic replacement ($700), hood ornament($100), paint, original cost of vehicle$1000) vinyl repair on passenger door. ($175?)roughly. The car runs great and smooth. I was planning on disabling the hydraulic shocks and replacing them with standard shocks (needs shocks), also, I'm not sure but I believe it could use a new carburetor (or might just need cleaning). One of the tires has a slow leak. I didn't include pics of the trunk because a battery is needed to close the trunk again.it's in very good condition as I recall. also, I was having some problems opening the hood. need 2 people to open now, one to pull lever on inside and one to quickly lift hood in front (needs adjustment). If you have any questions I will try to answer to the best of my knowledge. Buyer will need to make arrangements or come to pick up vehicle located in Ashland Wisconsin. no warranty
