Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
Dry and clean in the engine bay. The engine starts easily and the gears engage as they should. A fully functioning overdrive. A recommissioning service should be carried out, as we have pointed out previously. The technical functions of the car work as they should, with the exception of the heater controls, which are stuck. Nice tires, though old.
-
Interior condition
Nice, probably reupholstered seating surfaces. Carpets are somewhat dirty and soiled, but should be fairly easy to clean. No significant damage to the carpets. The rubber seals at the doors are loose and need to be refitted (see pictures)
-
Exterior condition
Repainted at some point during its lifetime, probably while still in the USA. Nice gloss, but there are minor bubbles, some dull areas, and a slight tendency to rust at the fender trim. Driver-quality condition on the chrome, glass, and light fixtures.
-
General condition
In nice usable condition and with a thorough service, a few hours with a polishing machine and a carpet cleaning would make this car really nice.
