I've owned a lot of collector cars, but this one gets the most attention of any I've ever had. However, my life has changed, and I only had the car out 3 times all of last year, so I'm going to pass it along to someone who will enjoy and drive it more. I have an idea that the listed mileage is correct, and the gentleman I bought the car from 6 years ago and who had the re-paint done, believed the mileage was accurate. From the looks of the interior, if I were looking the car over with a view to buy it, I would judge that the mileage is accurate. However as most of you are aware, the odometers on these older vehicles did not show over 100k. I am not representing that this car only has 42k on it. Very nice, but not perfect, paint job that has held up well over the years. This car has not spent a single night outside, nor has it been driven in the rain a single time since I've owned it. I don't even know if the wipers work. There are a couple of tiny (1mm) bumps around the base of the drivers side c-pilllar where something was apparently painted over, and some poorly touched-up dings on the side edge of the hood. The door handles show some flaking. The lower edge of the windshield has some marks where it was hit by a sander or wire brush. I found one small (less than 1") rusty place in the passenger side floor board. All of these would be completely unnoticed by 99.9% of people looking at the car. The car runs and drives as well or better than most new cars on the road. It is an absolute joy to drive. The brakes are excellent. The transmission shifts perfectly. The tires are excellent. I would drive it anywhere with no hesitation. The exhaust has a sweet tone that is moderately loud outside, but quiet inside. Plenty of power, but does not require premium gas. No smoking or unusual noises, and no drips. BTW, the tachometer in the dash does not work, and I doubt that it's original to the car. Clear NC title in hand and in my name. Having said all that, please realize that this is not a 100 point, detailed show car. It is a driver. The price reflects that fact. As with any old vehicle there will be issues. Please be realistic in your expectations. Serious buyers are welcome to view the car in person or send a representative to do so. I am not going to jeopardize my 100% feedback rating by misrepresenting an item. If the buyer arrives and discovers a major mis-description (other than cosmetic issues) I will refund the buyers deposit no questions asked. Please ask any questions you wish. However, once a sale is completed, I consider the vehicle sold as-is, where-is, with no warranties or representations of any sort. A sale on eBay is just that....a sale. It is not the right to come and kick the tires or negotiate. Zero or very low-feedback bidders will be ignored unless you contact me first. A Verified PayPal deposit of $500.00 is due within 24 hours of a completed sale. "Verified" means that there is money in the account, not funded by a credit card. The balance is due within 7 days, and may be by cash, bank-to-bank transfer, verified PayPal plus the PayPal fee, or check. Any form of check will tie up the car for up to 14 days pending clearing. I can store the car inside for up to 30 days once final payment is made. I do have a good place here to load.
