Notes:
Surface rust found in spots all around the car. Hubcaps and some trim
pieces are off. Transmission needs a rebuild, as it only runs
in third. Clock, radio, antenna and wipers are missing. Motor runs very
strong. I start it a few times a week to keep the juices flowing. Tires
are brand new! When we bought the car, we went directly to Costco and put new
Michelins on, so we could drive home (Los Angeles to Las Vegas). They have 600
miles on them at the most. The horn ring is off the car but I do have it.
