I am selling this car as is.I purchased this car from Katz ClassicLLC (on eBay) to restore it, but as life goes on, this is where I stop working on it.I did not have time to work on it and now I just want to sellit. I have driven the car about 1500 miles since I have purchased it in 2010 (drove it for about 500 miles after the paint job and new interior.I want somebody to finish the restoration and enjoy the car.
The car has been kept in garage all the time I have owned it.It has a new paint job to match the original blue paint (though the hood was not original to the car, because somebody stole the hood before my purchase and Bill Katz replaced the hood before I bought it). Windshield was re-installed with new rubber gasket.Engine & transmission appears to be original to the car and runs good for a car of this age. Shift gearssmoothly.The interior glove box is in the trunk along with someother pieces of trim and parts. The car is drivable and was license forthe road for a while.
