Desirable two tone Cordova brown roof over eggshell cream body. Light color interior. 4 door sedan with no B pillar. This car was went to Ziebart and was rust proofed probably when new, leaving the undercarriage and floorboards in great shape, other than the drivers floor has had rusted through due to excessive foot pressure on the floor board. The body is in really fair shape and the only small spots of rust are photographed in detail, you just have to ask for the pictures now, and I can send a link to a photobucket album with over 60 pictures. Including many of the under sides and sketchy areas.
Does start easily enough with manual choke, and runs real decent. May smoke, usually after sitting or adjusting choke lever. I have no reason to think this has ever had the valve seats redone so I've always ran lead additive in it. Looks stock under the hood. Just got a new battery. New points and rotor. Most of the complete brake system has been replaced. New power booster, master cylinder, and all 4 wheel cylinders. All the drums looked fair except for one that is grooved kinda bad but left some surface to operate. These are all the large style drums from the past. The brakes do work but they are typical for drum brakes, and are sure to use adjustment and another bleeding. It needs a complete exhaust system from the manifold back. The cross over pipe looked ok. It's loud as is. The windshield is cracked in several places across the visual area, but you can see through it ok. The carpet was damaged so it was stripped out, in the front at least, and the floor painted with some white paint. The person doing it was sloppy and got some paint on the seat that should be able to clean off. The front door panels have been damaged from trying to be removed at some point, they still need work inside the doors, as the window tracks don't work correctly or don't roll up or down all the way. If you can see, the front bumper is bent up from the bottom a bit. The only rust issue is on the right bottom skeg, the fin on the bottom back. And along some of the wheel wells but it doesn't show very bad. Some of the trim is less than perfect. The drivers floorboard has a hole rusted or worn through it and has been rat rod patched with a license plate and a lid off a cookie tin with some pop rivets. It needs carpet or not, there is none in the front and the rear is in poor shape. I would not trust the tires to be driven on for any great distances and show cracking and dry rot.
This is being sold as a project or parts car, this vehicle is not intended to be driven away from this location. This car can drive on a trailer. Of course as-is bid to win! This is for sale locally and this auction could end early for an on site sale. I could update this and add information at anytime also.
Please ask questions before bidding and for all the photos I can work with shipping people.
