No Rust.........No Rust.......Good restoration   I would rate it at a 7.5 to 8 with a 10 being perfect.

Re-painted about 6 years ago Dark Metal Flake Blue.

Body in great shape no dings or dents. It is a nice paint job, using a magnet I found no signs of any body filler anywhere.

I did not do the conversion so I know very little details about the car's history.

The Odometer may say 11600 but I believe that to be in error. The real number is unknown.

I have owned this car for over 5 years and have put less than a 1000 miles on it. It has never seen rain.

If I were to keep this car and decided to make it perfect I would 1. upgrade the radiator, 2. upgrade too both front and rear disc brakes, 3. change the ring and pinion gear to a higher ratio for better highway driving. 4. connect the heater, 5, fix the lights, 6. connect the tach. and do a tuneup. Anything else would be cosmetic.

Final note........  This car is being sold as is with no guarantees.
