for sale

Price: US $7,000.00

Description:

Great looking car! Driver quality and ready to go. Engine and tranny are solid, no smoke. Engine is original to car. I have replaced all front end suspension (all the worn out rubber parts). Top in good condition (has been replaced by previous owner) but does have small tear just behind passenger. Paint overall in good condition (has been repainted) but previous owner had damage to left rear quarter (this has been partially repaired but needs finish work). Interior is good; no rips or tears (has been refurbished by previous owner), carpet is OK but needs a good cleaning. Tires and wheels are OK, but will need new tires before you put it on the road. Equipped with power steering and brakes (has had a disc brake conversion from previous owner), under dash Mercury AC (all components are there but needs freon). No broken or cracked glass and rear window plastic in good condition (no yellow or fog). Gas tank has been serviced by local radiator shop (no rust, but just wanted it checked for leaks or problems). Radiator has also been refurbished and checked for leaks. New hoses, belts, alternator, plugs, fuel pump. Engine is the factory 289 with 4bbl (previous owner replaced carb with Edelbrock #1406 600cfm). Brake system has been completely refurbished; new master cyl, wheel cyl, caliper, lines, power brake booster.
Must pickup from owner-no delivery.
I have tried to list everything, but I am sure there are other questions you may have so feel free to respond or you can call me 770.778.7998 (Eastern Time Zone so no calls after 10PM).
Thanks for looking!
