This is a project car, it needs work but is far from junk.

Known history: My wife bought this car in 2001 in Santa Fe, NM where it is currently located. It has never been fully restored, this was her everyday car that she drove around so things were replaced to be functional. The seat upholstery was redone and covered by a houndstooth seat cover from Metropolitan Pit Stop. Shoulder seat belts were added. It was vandalized in 2003 with damage to the passenger front fender, windshield and rear window. That bodywork was done and it was repainted and the front windshield and back glass were replaced in 2004. Since about 2010 it has been undriven and somewhat covered in the southwest weather. There are some rust spots on the body and floor plates but otherwise the dry southwest air has been good in that sense. Mice did get in and remove a lot of the stuffing from the seats, and possibly damaged the original wiring. The horn was malfunctioning so the cover was taken off - we have all the pieces it just hasn’t been put back properly. The door panels are popping out and the passenger door is not latching properly. Other known needed repairs: Clutch, bushings, bearings, seals. We have a lot of the original extra parts (misc. trims, door panels, etc.) The engine will still start but the car is not safe to drive as is.

Great little car, so fun to drive. We don't have the time to fix it up so it's ready for a new owner!
