Notes:
I am the fifth owner. Car was completely restored in early '90s. Interior
was completely restored to match original colors and era-style, but not an exact match
to original pattern. Last two years the car was stored in barn and on main street
in a small central Texas town as a display. Some damage occurred due to tourist-abuse,
however the car is still in extremely good condition. Car was taken directly
after my purchase to local shop to rebuild engine, minor repair to steering and replace
gas tank, which was leaking. The only exterior or interior cosmetic problems are a small
dent in the front bumper, slight pits on the exterior door handles, and scratched paint
on steering wheel.
