Runs, rides & drives excellent because it has been kept in a climate controlled garage it's whole life.
Driven fairly regularly from April,1979 purchase date until parked & stored in 1988.During this 13 year period it was randomly started, driven & routinely serviced to maintain excellent running & driving condition. Owner gave it to his son in 2001 with 27,000 original miles. Basically parked in climate controlled garage & stored under car cover until now. Son drove vehicle at least once every 2 weeks less than 200 miles a year. He has started & warmed up the car once a week for the last 17 years. He has also had regular service & check ups performed on the vehicle during this time. This kind of care is why this vehicle is in perfect running, driving & near original condition today as when purchased brand new in 1979.
Regular oil changes & maintenance checks have been done since owned with synthetic oil run in motor since it's purchase. Have all original documents, paperwork, sales books, manuals, odometer statements, registration receipts, BUILD SHEET, etc. NOT COPIES.

Can't say enough about the originality of this beautiful car. Pictures do not do it justice.
This car was driven out of the garage where it was stored for the last 30 years. You can see it's original state not buffed up or polished to look better. It is what you see.
