IT DOES RUN AS IT SHOULD AND, CAN CERTAINLY CAN BE DRIVEN ANY DISTANCE WITHOUT WORRY.
AT SOME POINT THE OWNER DECIDED TO END THE EXHAUSTWITH A DOWN PIPE END BEFORE THE REAR BUMPER IN ORDER TO KEEP THE BUMPER ENDS CLEAN. THE HEADLINER IN THE HARDTOP HAS A RIP, THE BLACK CONVERTIBLE TOP IS FADED AND, THE AIR CONDITIONING COMPRESSOR NEEDS REPAIR ( A SPARE CAN BE PROVIDED).
THE INTERIOR OF THIS CAR IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH NO RIPS TEARS, OR STAINS. THE DASH IS NOT CRACKED AND ALL THE INSTRUMENTS WORK AS THEY SHOULD WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE CLOCK.
