This car runs & drives excellent and looks new in every way! Perfectly straight and balanced – one could drive this car reliably to Florida (or anywhere else) using 1 finger on the steering wheel!

Notes from current owner:
Will cooperate with buyer on sale and delivery terms. Email initially, through E-bay, with any questions
I drove the car from Bismarck, N.D. to Peoria, IL. non-stop (940 miles) totally trouble-free – at highway speeds and got 20 m.p.g. Halfway home, my wife commented, “this car rides smoother and quieter than the new Avis Rent-a-car we rented going to Bismarck”. I have since put on less than 6, 000 trouble-free miles and the car has never seen rain or snow since then (2006).
Oil and basic maintenance has been maintained regularly. U-joints replaced with new ones, 2010.
Turn signals’ mechanisms were replaced & cleaned in 2015
Horn was repaired in 2015, works great.
All lights work well, including the brights/dims and rear license-plate light.
Trunk fits tightly& does not leak at all, but rubber trunk liner needs replaced and a correct brand new “new-in-the-box” liner is included.
The original options and prices are listed in the Owner’s manual. Examples: fuel door lid chrome trim, $2.00 Remote trunk release, $7.00 power steering & brakes, $22 each. Side mirror, $4.95. Automatic headlight dimmer, $40.00
All records, paperwork, and maintenance invoices available.
Not working:
clock (might need only a new fuse?) 6-way power seat has full power now, but is simply “off the track” which eliminates the forward/backward factor (needs lifted onto the track - power is there so needs simply to be lifted onto the track) . .Therefore is currently a “4-way power seat”.
My ebay rating is 100% positive, so bid with confidence. Again, please E-mail through E-bay with any questions which I will be happy to answer.
Thank you for looking and bidding.
