Description

Bought this as a project car several years ago and don't have time to keep working on it. It runs and drives, ut has a small transmission leak and probably needs a new battery. The engine is perfect. The transmission is good other than the leak. It has a 5-digit odometer with 47k miles on it. The previous owner mentioned a rebuilt engine about 100k miles ago, ut I don't know about that with any certainty. The air conditioner leaks but does function when charged. The shift interlock was bypassed at some point in the past, o it will crank in any gear position. The steering and suspension are very vague, s one might expect in a very old car. The tires all match and have low miles.
The paint is old and non-original and in poor condition, ut is doing a good job of keeping the rust away. It has two small areas of rust that need repair: one in the back floorboard, nd one on the lower left corner behind the rear wheel. The interior and dash is mostly disassembled and removed and in the trunk, s I started working on it and didn't finish. The headliner is newly done in black vinyl. The seats are out of an Oldsmobile Aurora. They are power leather seats with power lumbar support. They are crudely installed and the wiring still needs to be completed for them. The seat belts are mismatched and thus do not currently buckle. I have new carpet and padding and lots of parts for it. Things like the hood ornament and small bits of grille trim are in with all the spare parts. Not much is missing.
