Just a brief history I purchased it from a woman owner who bought/titled it in NJ in 1981 with 3,908 miles showing on the title (I do have that title copy to convey to new owner) the odo now reads 8,713 I was told they were original miles my NJ title reads actual miles however I am selling the car as mileage exempt simply due to age of the vehicle with no other supporting mileage docs. Interior is believed original it looks amazing. Original lacquer paint was checking typical due to age hence I decided to give it a fresh Torch Red paint finish just recently completed.

All the trim, emblems, glass, are in great shape as well. It is just an amazing classic deco 50’s interior that shows incredibly well. The engine compartment is really nice and has the optional factory dress-up kit. The trunk is nicely detailed full spare tire with mat. *Soft-top is included with all parts not currently in the car (*see pix). The optional Porthole factory hardtop is excellent restored condition.
