"Fully renovated from the ground up and in top condition. Recently inspected with no issues, and the inspection is valid indefinitely. Nearly everything has been renovated, including the engine, body, automatic transmission, fuel system, brakes, and brake calipers. The interior is original and fully restored. The exterior color is original, repainted inside and out in shade 110 Cypress Green, with leather upholstery in 970 Natural (hide). The car runs and drives very well, though the middle exhaust section has started to rattle at low revs and will need attention—it just occurred while driving to our depot."

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The engine starts right away and runs smoothly, delivering plenty of power. The gearbox shifts well, and the car has solid brakes with good road handling. The engine bay is exceptionally clean and well-maintained. The only issue that recently occurred while delivering the car to our depot is a rattle in the middle exhaust section at lower revs, which will need to be reviewed. The wheels are not standard but are in good condition with good tires.

  • Interior condition:

    Interior is very clean and tidy, featuring nice brown leather seats. The rear seat has a few small marks on the leather (see pictures). The carpets, door cards, and headliner are in good condition. The dashboard instrumentation is in good working order, with a small repair on the dashboard's plastic cover. Overall, it’s a very nice and comfortable place to sit and enjoy, offering plenty of comfort.

  • Exterior condition:

    Bodywork shows no signs of damage or rust, perfectly matching the super clean and undamaged underbody, as you would expect from a renovated car. The chrome trims are in nice condition, and the bumpers are clean with minor scratches. However, the driver's wing mirror glass has some scratches. The paintwork is bright and clean with no issues. The car also comes with a box of extra parts (see pictures).

  • General condition:

    This well-renovated car looks great and is enjoyable to drive, often drawing positive attention from onlookers. The exhaust middle section could use a review, but otherwise, it drives well and should offer plenty of reliable years on the road.

  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends.
