This car has spent its entire life in a dry environment and has been garaged as long as I have owned it (last 8 yrs) and the previous owner kept it in an airplane hangar along with his other collectable cars. There is no rust anywhere on the body. It has been driven only on sunny weekends since I have owned it. It is not a garage or trailer queen but has been driven on nice days. Very sharp looking, very well maintained Italian sports car convertible. Paint is original but reflects the care taken by myself and previous owners. It has a very rich green exterior and tan interior color combination. Body appears good condition with only minimal stone chips on the front. Tires and brakes are in good condition. Very well maintained original interior, dashboard has no cracks, seats have no visible rips or tears, carpet has no visible wear spots or holes and transmission shifts smooth with no grinding when shifting into 2nd gear and top is in very good condition with clear back window. A/C needs charge but heater works well. Odometer registers 64K original miles.
