Price: US $7,500.00

Description:

31, 000 orig miles, owned since new by my aunt, and spent almost all of its life in the garage, less than 500mi on it in the last 15-20years. Factory automatic transmission and factory air conditioning, the a/c worked when it was parked in storage 10-12 years ago, but seems to have a leak, it has enough charge to run the compressor but it is only slightly cool air coming from the vents. I put a new battery in it, new tires on it, but it still have all the factory pieces and paint, including the factory spare that has never been on the car. It starts and drives but has intermittent idle problems when it gets warmed up. I am told it needs a carburetor but I hesitate to remove the original if it can be rebuilt. Only real flaw inside is the top of the drivers' seat back, where it has a small tear. The paint on the upper inside door is perfect, looking like no one has ever rode with their arm resting on it or hanging out the window. The real old lady who only used it for church and grocery comes to mind and in this case it's true. The Engine leaks a little oil (no surprise as its a bug) and seems to be coming from the push rods tubes, which it seems the dealer installed adjustable tubes so that may be a very minor fix. EVERYTHING else in and on the car looks as it should and functions like it should right down to the factory am radio, this car is low miles and mostly original, changed hands from my aunt to my mom but my mom just stored it. They put brakes and tires on it about 10-12 years ago, but no real mileage. Tires just replaced because the previous new tires had flat spots for sitting so many years.
The only one like this you will find, bid to win...
