Price: US $100.00
Very nice survivor condition four door hardtop with minimal rust. There is a tiny bit of rust bubbling on one rear wheel well lip. Possibly an older repaint, but if so it was a very good job to my eye(but I'm not an expert). Paint has a few minor chips and scratches and presents very well. Interior fabric is nice and still under plastic cover with one small scratch/scuff on drivers back. Dash is perfect as is all glass. Windows operate smoothly with all weatherstrips in place. Stainless trim is excellent and very nice. Car shows just over 34K miles which is believed to be accurate and comes with some documentation. Purchased from the Donald E. Stephens Estate of Rosemont, Illinois in 2008. New dual exhaust was installed 3 years ago but has developed an exhaust leak on passenger side. Tires are in great condition but old, (they say Sears on them). Starts easily, shifts smoothly, drives straight. The 410 cu. in. engine runs smoothly and strong. The tele shift works as it should. Radio works nicely, as do the controls and dials we have tried. Small power steering leak. Exhaust is somewhat loud but not intolerable. Car is located near Springfield, Missouri but could be driven anywhere. Local pickup only. It is a 50+ year old car and of course is sold 'as is'. We have tried to be as accurate as we could and will be happy to answer any questions, concerns, or photos, we are not the owners, we are selling for a family friend..this car deserves a good home
