The overall condition of this car is a running, driving, braking, shifting, steering, beast of potential. The engine is very strong and runs fantastic. Transmission shifts through the gears with authority. The brakes are responsive and pedal feel is firm. Suspension is all intact and tight for the age of some of its components, however no outstanding issues.
Bodywork is in need of TLC but in great condition for the age and in a VERY restorable condition. Interior is all there and looks great with a period correct patina. Dash looks great and steering from inside is tight.
