Original H code GT car with Air Conditioning (under hood components are missing). Retains all of the GT trim and badging. 98% rust free southern car. All original sheet metal. Undercarriage is in great condition, frame rails, floor pans and torque boxes are rust free. Exterior sheet metal is also very nice with minimal rust on the trunk lid. Original color of the car was yellow but has been repainted black which was done very nicely to include all door jams and insides. 72,000 original miles. Car has power steering and manual brakes.

Interior is all original and is in decent condition. Carpet was replaced when I pulled out all the old to check the floor pans.

This car is for someone who wants to have a project to play with while still using as a daily driver as the drivetrain work is already done. Car is presentable as is or restore to its factory glory.
