RUST FREE CALIFORNIA CAR IN MID-RESTORATION. THIS WAS KIND OF A BARN FIND ACTUALLY, BELONGED TO A MAN AROUND THE CORNER FROM MY SHOP, HE HAD PURCHASED THIS CAR 10 OR SO YEARS AGO WHEN HE LIVED IN CALIFORNIA, HAD BEEN WORKING ON FOR A FEW YEARS, SHIPPED IT TO MASSACHUSETTS WHEN HE MOVED HERE AND IT BEEN IN HIS GARAGE EVER SINCE.
** MANY NEW PARTS HERE IS A LIST OF WHAT I CAN SEE UNDER THE CAR;- NEW GAS TANK- NEW STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST- NEW REAR LEAF SPRING- NEW REAR AXLE SHAFT U-JOINTS- NEW REAR ADJUSTABLE CONTROL ARMS- ALL BRAKE CALIPERS APPEAR TO BE NEW WITH STAINLESS BRAIDED BRAKE HOSES- ALL NEW KYB SHOCKS- NEW HYDRAULIC STEERING RAM AND HOSES- NEW BALL JOINTS HOWEVER NEVER BEEN GREASED- NEW STEERING LINKAGES (TIE RODS, CENTER LINK, IDLER ARM)- NEW MOTOR MOUNTS- NEW STARTER MOTOR ( HOWEVER IT'S NOISY AND WILL NEED TO BE SHIMMED)- NEW FUEL PUMP- ONE NEW VACUUM MOTOR FOR THE HEADLIGHTS* ENGINE IS VERY CLEAN NO EXTERNAL RUST, MAY HAVE BEEN REBIULT BUT I HAVE NO WAY OF KNOWING
* BODY HAS BEEN LIFTED OFF THE FRAME AND THE WHOLE FRAME HAS BEEN PAINTED. THERE IS AN AREA UNER THE BRAKE MASTER WHERE BRAKE FLUID LEAKED ON THE FRAME AND PAINT HAS PEELED AWAY, THE BARE METAL LOOKS LIKE BRAND NEW
* MOST OF THE PARTS ARE THERE TO ASSEMBLE. THIS IS WHAT I CAN SEE IS MISSING;- CARPET- FRONT SWAY BAR- DASHBOARDI'M PRETTY SURE THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAS THE DASHBOARD, IF NOT THE CAR WILL BE SOLD WITHOUT IT. I WILL UPDATE WITH THAT INFO IN A FEW DAYS
* THE BAD - PREVIOUS OWNER WAS NOT A MECHANIC, MANY BOLTS HAVE BEEN LEFT LOOSE. NEW OWNER TO BE ADVISED TO THOROUGHLY CHECK EVERYTHING- SOME CRACKING AND DISTORTIONS ON THE NOSE PIECE BUT NOT THAT BAD. DOORS NEED BETTER ALIGNMENT BUT DO OPEN AND CLOSE EASILY
* THIS CAR DOES RUN VERY WELL AND YARD DRIVES, HOWEVER IT WILL NEED TO BE TRAILERED OR TOWED* THIS WOULD BE A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR RESTORATION OR A MOTIVATED HOBBYIST COULD HAVE A DRIVER IN TIME FOR THE FALL CRUISES OR SOONER.
* THE DETAILS SECTION SAYS IT HAS LEATHER, COMPACT DISC, AND AC. PLEASE BE AWARE IT DOES NOT. THE PAGE WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO DELETE IT
* LOW RESERVE* SHIPPING WILL BE THE BUYERS RESPONSIBILITY* ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE EMAIL, THANK YOU
