WE HAVE EARNED THEM BY PROVIDING AN HONEST ANDDETAILED DESCRIPTION FOR EACH ITEM AND CONDUCTING PROPER BUSINESS ON EBAY SINCE 2001. HERE IS THE DETAILED DESCRIPTION:

EXTERIOR:

THE BODY PANELS ARE VERY STRAIGHT WITH GREAT SHUT LINES. THE DOORS, HOOD, AND HATCHBACK OPEN AND CLOSE WITH EASE. THE DRIVER QUALITY PAINT IS GLOSSY WITH A DEEP FINISH WITH A FEW MINOR FLAWS THAT ARE HARDLY NOTICEABLE. THE HOOD IS COVERED WITH A MATTE BLACK VINYL WRAPTHAT CAN BE EASILYREMOVED IF DESIRED. THE UNDER-CARRIAGE INCLUDING THE ORIGINAL FLOOR PANS, SPARE TIRE AREA, THE JAMBS, ROCKER PANELS, ETC. ARE RUST-FREE (SEE PHOTOS). ALL GLASS AND LIGHT LENSES ARE IN GOOD CONDITION. THE ALLOY WHEELS AND TIRES ARE BRAND NEW.

INTERIOR:

THE ORIGINAL DOOR PANELS, DASH, INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, HEADLINER, AND ONE PIECE MOLDED CARPET ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE SEAT COVERS APPEAR TO BE REDONE RECENTLY AND LOOK LIKE NEW. THE CARPET IS PROTECTED WITH A BRAND NEW SET OF CUSTOM FLOOR MATS WITH ABARTH LOGO. ALL WEATHERSTRIPPING LOOK LIKE NEW. THE WINDOWS ROLL UP AND DOWN WITH EASE.

MECHANICAL:

THE ENGINE STARTS UP IMMEDIATELY EVERY TIME. IT RUNS SMOOTH AND PERFORMS WELL. IT DOES NOT SMOKE. THERE ARE COUPLE OF DROPS OF OIL BELOW ENGINE WHEN PARKED FOR AN EXTENDED AMOUNT OF TIME. THE 4 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION SHIFTS GOOD AND THE CLUTCH IS STRONG. THE BRAKES AND SUSPENSION PERFORM WELL. THE NEW WHEELS AND TIRES ARE BIGGER THAN THE ORIGINAL ONES. THE TWO REAR AND LEFT FRONT TIRES FIT WELL. SINCE THE ENGINE IS LOCATED ON THE RIGHT FRONT, THERE IS MORE WEIGHT ON THE RIGHT SIDE. THEREFORE, THE RIGHT TIRE WILL HIT THE LOWER EDGE OF THE FENDER IF THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED ALL THE WAY TO ONE SIDE. WE RECOMMEND A SET OF NEW SHOCKS TO BE INSTALLED ON THE FRONT OR A DIFFERENT SIZE TIRE TO BE INSTALLED TO AVOID THIS PROBLEM. THE HEATER CORE IS REMOVED FROM THE CAR AND THE HOSES ARE BYPASSED. THE EXHAUST SYSTEM IS IN GOOD CONDITION.

ELECTRICAL:

ALL LIGHTS, HORN, AND GAUGES WORK. THE TURN SIGNALS AND EMERGENCY FLASHERS USED TO WORK BUT CURRENTLY INOP. WE THINKTHE FLASHER UNIT MAY BE FAULTY OR THERE IS A BAD GROUND CONNECTION. IN EITHER CASE, IT IS A SIMPLE PROBLEM.

ENGINE COMPARTMENT:

THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT LOOKS CLEAN AND ORIGINAL BUT NOT DETAILED.

TRUNK:

THE SPARE TIRE AND SURROUNDING AREAS ARE RUST-FREE. THE SPARE TIRE WITH ORIGINAL STEEL WHEEL ARE IN GOOD CONDITION. THEREARE NO JACK OR TOOLS.

WE HAVE TRIED TO DESCRIBE A 41 YEAR OLD CAR TO THE BEST OF OUR ABILITY. THERE MAYBE SOME DEFICIENCIES THAT WERE NOT DETECTED AT THE TIME OF OUR INSPECTION AND MAY NEED REPAIRS IN THE NEAR FUTURE. THEREFORE, THE WINNING BIDDER NEEDS TO BE UNDERSTANDING ABOUT IT.
