This was a one lady owned car until I purchased it from her a couple of months ago. It has its original owners manual, spare keys, and comes with every single receipt pertaining to every aspect of its maintenance since she's owned it.There are literally hundreds of receipts and invoices, as she was super meticulous in her record keeping. The car has 72325 original miles, and has been in dry storage since 1999 when she stopped using it. When I purchased it, I flushed and replaced all fluids and filters, installed a new battery, and filled the tank with fresh fuel. The car started easily with the first turn of the key. It drives beautifully, although the brakes will need checking, and the air conditioning will need a re-charge I would suggest that the car be given a thorough service before being used as a daily driver. I have posted comprehensive photos of the car, including the under carriage, which I have gone through thoroughly, and can say with confidence that the only sign of rust that needs attention is on the driver side floorboard, where there is a contained hole approximately 5 inches long and 1 inch wide. There is also some bubbling in the paint very low on the rear right quarter panel. The car was resprayed in the early 90s in its original color, and still looks great with no fading except for a small dent on the right side of the hood (all the above is visible in photos). The upholstery was also professionally redone in the 90s and still shows well with the exception of the wood on the dash (delaminating) and the driver's side door card which has a couple of small tears. I'm not going to bore you with a long tirade on the collectibility and the increase in values of these cars, however, I must say it is almost impossible to find a one owner survivor in this condition. I can only post a limited number of pics here, but I have many more, which I can send upon request.
