This vehicle has been restored very close to the original way it was built. within reason to keep the cost within a reasonable number. herefore it wouldn't be considered a show car. ore like a daily driver. All the old paint was blasted off and then repainted. The dash and all the garnish moldings were powder coated to match the interior theme. It has less than 1000 miles on it since restoration which was 4 years ago. I believe that I am the third owner. It spent most of it's life in So. Ca. and was then purchased by a guy in Montana that was going to restore it but couldn't find the time so put it on Craigslist and thats where I bought it. I was told that the engine was rebuilt one time before it left California. Everything on the car has been gone thru and been checked out or rebuilt or repaired or whatever it needed so everything works. This is a very strong running car.
