Due to its exceptional condition, this is a truly appreciating collector car, and its value will continue to rise in the coming years. It would be very difficult to find a nicer one than this for the price. Never subject to road salt, always stored inside, all original bright white paint with no damage ever. The chrome and anodized aluminum trim are mint. Just look at how nice the interior leather and interior wood are in the pictures below. kentscars
Product Details
I purchased the car from a friend whose mother had recently passed away (her name was Christine, and that is the name of the business). That family owned it for 30 years, drove it only in the summers, and kept it in a heater garage. They owned a big business that had an in-house mechanic, and he did all the work on it.
I do not have any maintenance records, but I could tell upon inspecting the car that it had been well taken car of. (You should hear the engine run)! it was apparent it did not need any significant work. Recent shocks and front suspension parts had been replaced. Brakes had been recently done as well.
Here is a list of what I have done ( most of it cosmetic ).
New hood pad
New rear hood seal
New blower motor cover
New coolant expansion tank
New windshield washer tubing
New engine V-belts
New idler pulley
New fuel pump relay
New EHA valve
I did not even need to wax the car. The paint is amazing, and the anodized aluminum trim is like new. The soft top was replaced a few years before I got the car, and the hard tip is mint.
