The car has always been garaged, and since CA, only driven in the summer. The interior is near perfect as the seats had been covered since new with sheepskin seat covers. When removed the seats were revealed to show no wear, cracks, tears or separating seams. The headliner has been redone professionally; a perfect match to the interior.

Comes with spare, tool kit and trickle charger for battery since the car has been stored the past several winters.
