I bought this car several years ago with an intent to restore it, but decided just to sell the car. It is titled in NJ under my name. It looks like the last registration was in 1992. The body is very solid (see in pics) and complete. The paint is faded and cracked and peeling in some places, but restorable. The engine bay seems complete but of course the mechanics will have to be checked. The carbs would have to be rebuilt. Transmission fluid was relatively clean when drained. Was able to shift through gears, but condition of bearings, gears and syncros is unknown. Brakes and suspension need to be rebuilt. the wiring and electrical will have to be refreshed of course. The chassis and floors have very little rust. The dash/gauges are in reasonable shape, but missing some parts. The wheels are good, tires of course are junk. The car does steer and roll very good. The seats are restorable but interior should probably be redone. Steering wheel is good. Overall, very restorable car. The car is sold AS IS WHERE IS. Potential buyers should come and inspect it or send someone else to do it for them.
