Purchased this car about 10 years ago. At that time it was about 4 years post-restoration, which included a repaint in yellow/black Charleston style (similar to the 2 CV taxi used in the Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events.) Seats were also redone in gray Charleston style fabric.
Used as a second car for 8 years it was parked due to carburetor problems and increasing concern about driving with SUV, large pickups and folks that just don't pay attention! Became a project that never got attention. Realized I was never get to it, so time to sell.
