Background on car: Was originally ordered from the factory by an older woman in Missouri who had just lost her husband. Was built to her specifications. Her family put it up for sale when she passed in 2008 . According to her family, the car was always garage kept. I am a licensed automotive mechanic, and purchased the car in 2008. The car needed minor work, but was in beautiful condition. The car was painted for the first time by me 11 years ago. It has been garage kept since. I have taken it to car shows and for pleasure rides, and have put fewer than 5,000 miles on the car since purchase.
This car interior is in MINT condition. The original carpets have been kept covered with mats on top of original floor mats. Carpet is in ‘like new’ condition. Ash trays have never been used. Exterior has no dents or dings in the sides and paint is in fair condition. There are a few imperfections in the chrome as you would expect in a 40 year old car, and there are a few small areas where surface rust is bubbling the paint. They could be touched up. If the vinyl roof were replaced, it would offer an opportunity to address a lot of the imperfections. ReplacementVinyl roof comes with car. There is also a can with 3/4 quart of base coat paint that will come with the car.Original build order comes with car.
Because parts are hard to come by, I have accumulated some replacement parts in the event I needed them. They also come with the car, and include used air pump for air ride, used climate control switches, climate control head, new set of rear air shocks, used air ride controller and a few other small items. I also have a customer who does custom leather work, and he dyed leather to perfectly match the interior in case I had to recover or repair the driver's seat.
Recent repairs: Fuel pump and injectors replaced. Fuel tank cleaned and new tank fuel sending unit installed. New water pump. New tires. Two new batteries. New alternator.
