Factory installed air conditioning would need to be made to Freon (as this was only driven as a convertible,AC was not used or redone). Shows no rust, even on the undercarriage. Matching numbers.Owned currently for 15 years. Has been stored in a moisture free garage. Good condition tires and rims- extra set of 4 rims included with car.
