The bright red interior is as beautiful as the shapely exterior, and the power leather seats are comfortable. The driver seat bottom had some tears that were repaired and not precisely color matched, but it still looks great. The engine starts right up with a low growl and runs strong and smooth. The automatic transmission shifts flawlessly. Steering and braking are tight and solid.

The body is in excellent condition with no cracks, spidering, or damage. The paint looks fantastic in spite of some little scratches here and there that are barely noticeable. The frame is very solid with no rust. This classic sports car is turn key and ready to go. It's time for you to take the tops off, get in, and drive.

BUY WITH PEACE OF MIND!

I am the "COLLECTIBLE KING", and I am a proud Car Nut! I love cars and trucks--especially classic, high performance, and just plain cool cars! I help people sell their cars--I am not the owner of the great car or truck you see before you. I am your eyes and ears--I personally inspect and photograph each vehicle to provide you with an honest and unbiased assessment. Not only is it fun, but I want to find that special someone who is perfect for this very special car and will love and care for it like the current owner has. I want you to be so happy with the car you buy from me that you tell your friends and family about it for years so that maybe someday they will come to me for help finding their dream car, too.

TERMS OF SALE:

I love cars, but I hate "legalese", so I tried to keep this as simple as possible. When you bid, hit the "Buy It Now" button, or make me an offer, it means you have read and agreed to these terms:

PROMISE TO BUY:

You promise to buy this vehicle if your bid is the highest, if you hit the Buy-It-Now button, if you make me an offer and I accept it, or if I make a counter-offer and you accept it.

PAYMENT:

At least a $500 deposit must be received within 3 days. The balance must be paid within 1 week. Full payment or deposit is accepted in the form of cashier's check, wire transfer, or cash. PayPal is also accepted for the deposit only.

SHIPPING & HANDLING:

The buyer should arrange their own shipping or pick up the vehicle in person. If desired, I can assist with shipping arrangements or ship the vehicle if the buyer pays all costs in advance.

RETURNS & REFUNDS:

The vehicle is sold as-is with no warranty expressed or implied. All sales are final. Questions and test drives are encouraged in order to clear up any concerns about the vehicle, but the buyer is advised to do so before bidding or making an offer. Extensive effort is made to inspect the vehicle and report all flaws and features accurately and completely, however, there is always a possibility of errors in the listing or that something was missed during the inspection. The buyer is responsible for making sure the vehicle is what they want prior to bidding or making an offer.

In the event that there is a significant discrepancy between the actual condition of the vehicle and the condition stated in the listing, the seller will--AT THE SELLER'S OPTION--either offer a discount, remedy the problem, or cancel the sale and refund the deposit. Such discounts, remedies, or cancellations will not be offered after the vehicle has been shipped or had ownership transferred to the buyer.
