This car was has been in central CA it's whole life, the dry climate has allowed this car to remain rust free. It was built about 15 years ago and it still shows well because it's always been garaged.

The body absolutely rust free from top to bottom, the Orange Pearl paint shines good but is about 15 years old. There are a few chips from normal use and the paint could use a good polishing as there are scuffs and such from being under a car cover. The flames were done by a guy called Hired Gun, he was well known around here for his work. The body is pretty straight, I can see no signs of any collision damage or panel replacement that I could find. The chrome and stainless are all real nice with a little blemish in the chrome on the LH rear bumper, below the tail light. The glass is all in great shape with only a couple minor scratches on the passenger door glass, tinted back and side windows. It has a custom hard tonneau cover that has struts and a power release, push the button and it opens right up. The wheels are chrome, look like Eagle but not sure of brand. It could use new tail light lenses, they are original and have a couple cracks and some fading.

The interior is nice, it has bucket seats out of a late model with a power drivers seat. I don't know of it's hooked up but it doesn't move. There is some light wear on the seats and the carpet but both are very presentable. It has the original gauges, there are small gauges mounted under the dash for temp, oil pressure and charging system as well as a Sun Tach mounted in the floor. The dash has a newer pad, it looks like a factory replacement. The door panels are nice as is the headliner and visors. Dash and doors were painted the same color as the car, it has a chrome glove box door and ashtray. it has a starter button mounted under the dash to start as a security feature. It has a Grant tough wheel steering wheel and even the horn button works. There is a space saver spare tire with all tools/jack behind passenger seat.

The engine and transmission run out nice, around 20K miles since installed. The engine has real nice power and good response and the transmission goes right into gear and shifts solid. It's sat in my shop for 2 weeks and not one drip on the floor. The car sat for a few years so the oil was changed, cooling system flushed, new plugs, new radiator cap, fuel tank cleaned, new fuel filter and the K&N air filter serviced. It also has a new battery. The entire brake system is new with only 5 miles, wheel cylinders, hoses, shoes, rear hardware and drums all turned. It stops like new! This was an original A/C equipped car, it has everything from the original HD radiator, suit case, everything under the dash and only needs a compressor, condenser and lines to make it work. This is a great time to upgrade to R134 and a Denso compressor. It has aluminized dual exhaust, ceramic coated headers and Flow Master mufflers that have pipes all the way to the back. It was lowered with new coils, it does have air shocks on the rear if you need to haul something, I have them set at 25 psi currently. The steering feels pretty tight, it looks like some parts were changed over the years, probably when the lowering springs were installed. The tires have plenty of tread, I think they've been on there for 10 years or so but no weather checking or signs of age because it didn't sit outside.

The car is ready to drive and show, great way to start off the season. It has 2 different car covers, one is a heavy duty type for outside and the other is a lightweight one for inside the garage included as well as some detailing supplies. I think I covered everything but let me know if you have any questions.
