A THING OF BEAUTY, IS A JOY FOREVER
This car is like a breath of fresh COLD air (the air condition actually WORKS, on this baby--- and how)!

Yes, there may be others out there, but this one is the original LAVANDER color, especially orderedfor this owner (a dear sweet lady, who is the mother of the son, who owns a mechanic shop, andhas decided to sell it for her). (Color listed as purple, because GM soft lavander was not listed).
And this one hasn't been totally redone and replaced and restored and modified,making it an over-laqueredconfection of itself. This car has beenactually unused, and stored and cared for, it's whole life. The odometer has not turned over,not once.Miles are original. Owner is the first, and current owner. And the condition has been meticulously kept andmaintained as was, when it was taken off the dealers lot. Everything works. And everything about the carimpresses you.
The minute you step into it, you are taken back in time, from the feel of the easy steering,to the commanding powerof the protruding muscle car engine, so typical of the feel and excitement of the 60s.You can peel rubber so easilyin this baby, but now, that would be considered wrong, in so many ways.Still, you could hop in, and do it... just forthe hell of it.
This is truly, a car to be admired, in.... and, it is so pretty.It stilll has it's gloss.
Car is practically mint condition.
Imperfections known are listed as follows:Back passenger marker light (red lens) has degraded over time.Has been replaced, however, the "R" is gone, on that side.A discerning collector might have it replaced with some ease.
Electric windows go up and down well, but not superfast, anymore.This might be noticed by an expert collector.
Same with the electric entenna. Manual button located on dash.
Retratractable headlights work well, might not be immediate.
Has original radio and speakers. All work well.
Door locks work
NO ACCIDENTS (of course).Body is absolutely straightNo visible dings or scratchesOriginal vinyl top in good conditionCar looks like it did, when it was new!
Tires are good, have appropriate white walls, for the time.
Engine sounds great. Immediate response (tight), quiet as should be,No steering over play.Has no excessive echoing or reverberation from the muffler.No lifters tapping.Nothing is wrong,Engine is fine tuned.No exhaust or smell or smoke from tail pipe.
Shifts perfect. Transmission in perfect condition.
Brakes serviced, and work perfectly.
Given tune up, oil changed, fluids topped off, ready to rip.
Suspension and shocks good. Appropriate heights to the ground.
Doors shut solid, no fallen door jams not meeting right.Weather stripping original and still intact.
