This car was just purchased locally from it's long term California owner who has owned the car since his college days, about 30 years.

The dashboard instruments are all working correctly.Mechanically, the car is completely sorted and ready to go. It's a wonderful tight driver with excellent roadholding. The car's rebuilt 1800cc engine starts quickly on the key with great stable oil pressure, no smoke or noises, and revs well. A modern aluminum radiator is a great addition.
