MOTOR
5.6 V8 in excellent running condition. Engine runs very strong with good power and steady idle. Just replaced valve cover gaskets. Drove from San Diego to Los Angeles with no issues. Temperaturewas steady. I would not hesitate to drive this car long distances. Fresh new oil change just done also.
TRANSMISSION
Automatic transmission that shifts smoothly and with no grinding or binding. Shifts as it should. No fluid leaks. Goes into gear quickly with no delay or hesitation. Fluid is clean.
BODY AND PAINT
Original Dark Grey paint with no major scratches. Couple of dings on drivers side (see photos). Looks like its been garaged most its life so clear coat is still in excellent condition. Does have a couple of very tiny nicks on the passenger side door panel(see photos). Couple of rock chips on front nose and scratch on lower hood(see photo). Nothing that stands out like sore thumb at all. Tail lights are in perfect condition with no scratches are cracks or imperfections.
INTERIOR
Excellent tan leather interior with no stains or cuts or rips. Some wear cracks on front seats, but not tears or cuts. All original with no modifications. A/C blows really cold and has been converted to R134.
ELECTRICAL
All gauges work correctly. Everything lights up as it should (Interior and Exterior). Original Becker radio is fully functional with good sound. Not sure if cassette player works. I don't have a cassette to test it with. Has a Vector radar detector that is working and functional. Old style car cell phone is working. Power windows, mirrors and door locks all work correctly. Front and rear heated seats work. Headlights work perfectly.
TIRES AND BRAKES ANDSUSPENSION
Original 15" grey wheels with factory size tires. Tires are like new and have 90% tread left. Drives nice and smooth on freeway. Brakes are at 60% in front and 70% in rear. Brakes nice and straight with no pulsation or noise. Suspension is all original. Shocks and struts are still good. Looks like front shocks have been replaced with Bilstein units. Just had front alignment done. Nice and straight on freeway.
