Owned and garaged since 1989, riven frequently.

Open projects: If you live in a very warm climate and enjoy long drives in the summer, New Alloy Radiator would give you peace of mind. The original radiator is a little tired after 47 years on hot days.

Interior: New carpet and rubber door trim strips would be desirable.

Generally rust free, eft front jacking point and wheel wells would need attention at time of full restoration; Paint average to very good with normal wear: a few scratches & road rock paint chips, ith minor blemishes on the hood, oof and bottom of rear wheel wells.
