It’s a vintage car with some of the original vintage things - window roll down is sticky and needs to be addressed, no leaks NO RUST - the only rust was repaired by replacing drivers side floor pan/welded/sealed/undercoated, missing spare tire, removed visors and rear view when new headliner went in, antennae is not attached to anything as all radio components removed(I use a Bluetooth speaker in backseat). Speedo was disconnected when motor swapped(I use a GPS Speedo), but all other gauges work great with backlights. Needs drivers side lock cylinder, but all other locks work(passenger door, gas cap, and trunk). So its not a perfect showroom car, but is exceptional in its condition.

Bought it for $5000 in 2015, put $20,000 + into it making a superb mechanical 2002 and at least $5k into bringing it back to life with paint, trim, wheels & tires, and interior. I hate to see it go, but its ready to be daily driven at high RPM!
