Description of 1972 Citroen Other SM

Citroen SM manufactured for 3 years when Citroen briefly owned Maserati in the 1970s. This car has a 6 cylinder Maserati engine which runs with an automatic transmission. Car was always in New Mexico so no rust other than some surface rust. Car is complete everything there. There is a dent in the driver's door. The previous owner was run into in the driver's door nowhere else on the car. But he parked it in 1992 and never drove it again. Suspension still works but is leaking. Engine runs transmission works body is good except for the dent in driver's door (see photo). Car ran perfectly when parked in 1992 needs lots of TLC to bring it back to life. Exterior is complete one small piece of chrome missing near taillights everything else intact. Interior is complete but seats are ripping and dashboard is cracked. Paint is a 'burned" gold/brown with a patina on it. Glass is all there including glass between the headlights for the front license plate (which currently has a French 'shipping plate" in it. Car was started within past few weeks now in storage. Pneumatic suspension works but leaks. Hoses are mostly rotted away or split due to age and hot NM desert sun. Car needs complete restoration but is a true barn find and will be wonderful when fully restored. Purchased from a charity where the original owner had donated it after letting it sit for 20+ years. Please ask if any questions. CAR IS SOLD AS IS NO WARRANTIES. BUYER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY SHIPPING ARRANGEMENTS AND COSTS. Payment is with PayPal $500 at end of sale balance within 5 days.
