The speedometer cable has to bebe greased or replaced. The car cruises at highway speed. I have tried to be as thorough as possible in it's description and welcome any bidders mechanic or appraisal company to perform an inspection. I purchased this vehicle in 2012 for $12,750 and put about $3000 into it's restoration and have all the documentation. I am moving and losing my storage. The reserve is low to allow the winning bidder leeway to continue restoration. I will be more than happy to answer any questions. Good luck bidding!
