·Many extra miscellaneous spare parts included (including spare bumper, front air dam, window switches, misc. interior and exterior hardware parts)

·Car is a head-turner and a pleasure to cruise in down the highway.Have done 4 years worth of drives to Asheville, NC, form Atlanta, GA, for the Vintage (check it out: https://www.atthevintage.com/) and she purrs down the highway and has never let us down.

·Runs great with no known mechanical issues

·I do not have the proper garage space needed to keep the car protected long-term.

·As is, no warranties.

·$1000 non-refundable deposit due within 48 hours of auction close via PayPal

·Full payment due within 7days of auction close.

Known Issues:

·Small cracks in dash (see photos), but overall the dash is in excellent condition.

·Only the front passenger stereo speaker is working and the cassette player is running slowly.

·Door lock actuators recently stopped working. This means that you have to manually lock or unlock the doors and open the gasoline fill door by releasing it through inside the trunk.Haven’t had the time to troubleshoot this.

·Odometer works flawlessly during winter months, works off and on during warmer weather. This has been a weekend driver only for me since I have owned it and history of records leads me to believe that the miles on the odometer are not significantly off from true miles.
