It's a beautiful car which drives great and runs nice. If you've been looking for this model and year they don't get any better than this. The paint/interior color combo isgreat in person and the affect of the t-tops makes it that much better.

Let me know if there are additional photos needed and I'll get them.

**Note the car is for sale elsewhere and I reserve the right to end this auction early.

I've added some photos and comments belowin response to questions from eBayers:

1) Photos of the paperwork I received with the car. Includes the corrosion warranty/rust protection documentation, original manual, battery info, vehicle inspection form. All tie it to the dealer sticker on the deck lid of the car.

2) Door tag images showing the original stickers including the dealer installed t-top documentation.

3) Image of the trunk lid inside and the sticker there.

Comments:

  • one person asked about the history of the car and ownership. To my knowledge I am the third owner, I have not run a Carfax on it.
  • Buy It Now price--a number of people have asked about a BIN price. At this point I would prefer to let the auction run.
  • there was a question on the T-Tops. These are a dealer installed option and look much better than the factory ones (one person's opinion of course)due to the "glass top look". Very light and easy to handle. Both original storage bags are in the trunk.
  • car has been stored for some time. I ran it today and noted the exhaust bend over the rear axle has some pin holes in it. This is the original exhaust as near as I can tell--aside from the muffler as noted above.
  • carb was rebuilt last fall.
  • I noted a couple of touched up small paint chips on the drivers door. The condition of the door post decals, the dealer sticker and so on lead me to believe this is the original paint though I can't verify 100%.

I will continue to add information as needed. I've added an image as well when the car was pulled out today.
