#s match, 53,585 miles, 1 owner 27 years!

Description

53,585 actual miles, same owner the last 27 years! Real T/A, has the vin # matched motor, trans and colors it was born with. Matches the original fender tag exactly. Actually the owner says every mechanical part that has a number on it is correct. This is an honest car. He did the restoration in the mid 90s, I thought it was just done recently it looks so good. That says alot about the quality of restoration. Only 1,500 miles since restored, he trailer-ed it to a lot of shows. The car feels right too. Door shuts like new, it stops, steers and accelerates perfectly.
What makes a T/A extra special?
