Again, this example is for someone who wants to jump in and start daily driving this beautiful classic! It's not showroom perfect, but it's ready to continue to travel countless more miles! These are incredibly reliable vehicles, and such a treat to own. You constantly have people asking you questions, and wanting to know more about it. The front seats have some wear, but a full set of factory used seat skins are included, if the new owner wishes to install them. The passenger front fender and rear door have a dent, which is hard to capture in photos due to the color of the car. Both could easily be pulled out and repaired. This has always been a southern car, and has NO RUST!!!!!!! Owners manual and orginal window sticker are included!
This is obviously sold without a warranty, and shipping is on the buyer. Mileage might slowly go up, depending on when this is sold. Two of the upper strut mounts make a slightly creaking noise after being driven for awhile. It could use rear rotors. Both of these very minor repairs, would be under $100.
