The body is totally rust free with its entire undercarriage in original condition, also completely rust free and never been undercoated or painted! Includes factory options like rear jump seat and radio delete plate!


All body parts and panels are 100% original, though body appears to be partially re-sprayed.


The gaps for the hood, trunk and doors are simply perfect! The trunk floor is beautiful and original and has also never been re-sprayed! All the chrome on this car is in really good condition and never been re-chromed!


As most serious car collectors say, it's original only once. This car is so original that the front grille has never even been removed; the wings are still held with its original 9mm nuts and original washers!


All 8 hood bolts that hold the hood also appear to never have been removed, which is an amazing thing to find these days.


Pictures of the undercarriage support our understanding of the car's history, i.e. it has always been driven in good weather. The undercarriage has been cleaned since these photos were taken, so in reality it currently looks a lot nicer, and we can provide updated undercarriage pictures upon request.


The engine and engine bay have been preserved in the most original state that we have seen over the last 40 years, almost like new, in fact, with its original Solex carburetors! Its carburetion is simply perfect and untouched; something that's so incredibly rare to see today!


The car includes all its original stickers and booklets!
