CAR IS SOLD WITH A BILL OF SALE ONLY
Exterior
With fading, inclusions, chipping and orange peel texture the red paint covers the exterior of this car. Chrome and brite work is corroded, and has lost its shine in some areas, but it is all there. Steel panels and gaps are mostly straight and consistent, and there is some invasive rust seen on the exterior rockers. Chrome and vinyl trim runs along the sides highlighting the wheel wells, and belt line and appears in good condition. The convertible top is smudged, but otherwise in good condition. It is operated electronically. Some rust is seen on the frame of the convertible top. Turbine style chromed wheel covers are on all 4 corners.
Interior
Overall nicely presenting black vinyl seats, carpet, and dash. Interior appears to have been restored more recently than the exterior (save for the top). The original dash with its centrally mounted round speedometer, is flanked by two polygonal instrument clusters framed in chrome trim. The original steering wheel is wrapped in an aftermarket leather covering, but center of it appears to be unrestored, with slight cracking seen.
Drivetrain
Appearing restored with new red paint, new engine bay paint, and mostly unscathed attached parts, this dusty 425 cubic-inch Super Rocket V8 sporting horsepower ratings ranging from 300 to 370 depending on carburation and compression ratio. The new three-speed Turbo Hydramatic transmission with torque converter replaced the Roto Hydramatic used since 1961. This example runs and drives well.
Undercarriage
Some surface rust (noted on the rockers, and typical steel parts of the undercarriage) is seen, with mostly structural sound framework, floor pans, and wheel wells. Undercoating has been applied, and it appears a newer muffler and exhaust piping has been installed.
A weathered exterior, a nice interior, and a restored engine adorn this Dynamic 88 from 1966, giving it an overall condition of fair plus. No known mechanical problems on this Dynamic 88.
