*THE CONVERTIBLE TOP WAS FOLDED AWAY FOR YEARS. WE DID MAKE 3 SMALL REPAIRS TO THE TOP.

*THE CONVERTIBLE BOOT COVER WAS NOT IN THE CAR.
*THE SPEEDOMETER FACE PLATE HAS SLIGHTLY SHIFTED UNDER THE GLASS AND IT ALLOWS LIGHT TO SHINE THROUGH WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS ARE ON. I WAS TOLD THIS WAS COMMON ON THESE CARS, BUT WAS DIFFICULT TO MAKE THE REPAIR FOR A MODERATE PRICE.
