My dad gave me the car which he bought from a friend 5 or 6 years ago. We live in Ohio and the car was always in a garage and never driven. He bought it in Corpus Christy Texas from a guy who brought it over from Italy in the mid 80s where he was stationed in the Navy. He bought it from the original owner and shipped it back to Texas where my dad bought it. The car had never been left out of a garage or seen snow. As far as I know its original paint and matching part numbers. The interior is in good condition but the drivers seat has some cracks in it. The carpet is clean but the drivers floor is missing some rubber from the area that is rubber. The rubber around the doors are not in the best condition. The paint is very nice with no scratches or rust but there is a little bubbling going on along the trunk lid. The chrome is good but not perfect. It looks original. Not really any bubbles on it but maybe just needs a good polish. The under side is clean other than transmission fluid from the leaking transmission and only has a few minor surface rust spots. Only one headlight works and a few body marker bulbs are out as well. It needs a horn relay as well. The horns do work but are disconnected because the relay is stuck on. The Radio was missing and my dad bought one on ebay for $400 but it is the wrong one and don't fit. It needs to be sold and another one purchased that fits this model. It dous have 4 brand new tires on it with less than 500 miles on them and a new battery and tune up parts as well as a fuel pump. It did not run when he got it.
