HISTORY
THIS CAR WAS DRIVEN FREQUENTLY AND WELL MAINTAINED BY THE PREVIOUS OWNER UP UNTIL 2 YEARS AGO WHEN SHE PUT IT IN STORAGE UNTIL I PURCHASED IT
VISUAL
THIS CAR IS EXTREMELY CLEAN NO RUST IN THE TYPICAL AREAS AT ALL SOLID AND SUPER CLEAN UNDERNEATH PAINT APPEARS TO HAVE BEEN TOUCHED UP AT SOME POINT ON THE PASSENGERS FENDER, T DOESN'T QUITE LOOK RIGHT PLEASE VIEW THE PICTURES. ALSO THE BACK DOORS WILL NOT OPEN, HE PREVIOUS OWNER SAID THERE IS A VACUUM PUMP THAT WILL NOT RELEASE THE LATCH SHE GAVE ME A BRAND NEW ONE, WILL INCLUDE THE PART
THE QUARTERS, OORS, RUNK, OOD, RUNK LID, LL LOOK SOLD. LINED UP PERFECTLY, LL CLOSE AND OPEN FLAWLESSLY. THEY LATCH EFFORTLESSLY. NO RUST ANYWHERE SEE THE PICTURES!!
ENGINE/TRANSMISSION
THIS CAR WAS DRIVEN DAILY UNTIL IT WAS PARKED IN 2013, HE FUEL THAT IS IN IT WAS VERY OLD, PUT A BATTERY IN IT DRAINED THE FUEL CHANGED THE FILTER AND THE CAR STARTED, IDN'T SMOKE AND RUNS GREAT BUT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDS ADJUSTMENT, HE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR DOES NOT ENGAGE THE THROTTLE BODY FAR ENOUGH TO OPEN IT UP, ND THE GAS PEDAL SPRING DOES NOT RETURN THE PEDAL SO IT WILL STICK IT WILL MOVE AROUND FINE, ND YOU CAN TURN THE THROTTLE BODY BY HAND TO HEAR IT REV AT HIGH RPMS. I WAS SURPRISED AT HOW EASILY IS STARTED AFTER SITTING FOR 2 YEARS.I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THIS CAR, ORE THAN AROUND THE DRIVE WAY AND OFF THE TRAILER. IT HAS BEEN SITTING I WOULD RECOMMEND REPLACING ALL THE FLUIDS AND GIVING THE CAR A THOROUGH INSPECTION BEFORE DRIVING THIS A GREAT DISTANCE. THE CAR STARTS UP AND IS QUIET EVERYTHING WAS WORKING AS IT SHOULD. NO SMOKE AND A SMOOTH QUIET IDLE.
TIRES
ARE HOLDING AIR AND INFLATED
BRAKES
THE PEDAL HAD PRESSURE AND THEY WORKED LOADING IT I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE CAR,WINDOWS
THE GLASS LOOKED GOOD.NO CRACKS
INTERIOR
THE INTERIOR, EADLINER, ARPETS, EATS ALL LOOKED WONDERFUL AND COMPLETE PLEASE SEE PICTURES. THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS MISSING THE STORAGE POUCH BUT I HAVE IT
ALL IN ALL THIS IS A GREAT CAR FOR RESTORATION OR EVEN WITH JUST A LITTLE WORK A FUN DAILY DRIVER.
THE CAR WAS NOT CLEANED AND THE PICTURES WERE TAKEN WITH MY CELL PHONE.
IT REALLY IS A BEAUTIFUL CAR WITH PLENTY OF POTENTIAL.
ELECTRICAL
THE WINDOWS GAUGES, IGHTS, ND EVEN THE RADIO WORKED WHEN I STARTED IT.
ONCE AGAIN IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE ASK BEFORE BIDDING.
I AM BY NO MEANS AN EXPERT ON THIS CAR,
