The engine currently has 92,780 miles and it has not turned over in terms of mileage. The engine has been well maintained and parts have been replaced as needed. The transmission has been rebuilt as of 2005 and I have receipts as proof of the rebuild. Drives smoothly from 0-85 mph. All accessories, urn signals, ights, orn, tc work on this car exactly the way it came from the factory. The body is in very nice shape and it doesn't show any signs of rot.
