I just recently bought this as a daily driver but my wife wants something newer. It is a very sweet ride, professionally restored, documented 107,000 kms on it. Car is a 4 dr, automatic, 2.5 litre inline 6, dual carbs, moonroof, leather interior('71 vintage), good rubber. This car runs excellent an has no issues. I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere. I have the original sales tag, and documentation from the early 70's, including any major work and all appraisals that were done. Surprisingly to me, this car turns as many heads as my 56 Dodge, I get thumbs up everywhere. There is no rust whatsoever, no leaks, and it purrs like a kitten. There is a tear on the drivers seat and also on the armrest, otherwise, interior is in great condition. I don't want to sell it but since my wife will be driving the car the most, I want her to be comfortable driving around with our new baby in the car. Plus, I'd feel guilty driving it in the winter. :?

I will consider trades up, down or straight across for a newer 4 door automatic vehicle, preferably a small car or I will sell it for $4200 OBO. I have pics that I can email and will try to get some up here soon.

PRICE NOW $3800 OBO

Coil spring suspension, independent rear as well.

Actually receipts are available for all repairs; muffler, plugs, seals, everything. Car is not full of bondo. When restoration was done, panels were all replaced with new where required. I believe there is just the one repaint, when it was restored. No electrical issues, raining or not. And no water leaks around sunroof either, or anywhere else as far as I know.

I also have all the manuals for this car as well, and the bill of sale for anytime it changed hands. Very well documented history.

Don't miss out on a sweet classic ride. Costs me less than $100/year for insurance due to it's age. Awesome riding and driving car as well.

It is OBO folks. I've done some comparison shopping and there are no others around in this condition & mileage at anywhere near this price. At least I haven't found them. Will also consider trades as stated above.

Lowballers considered, IF you're serious.

I don't really want to drag this to the auction as I already have an old truck to put in there.
