Firstly, the car is a 77.5K original mile California Car. I bought it from the second owner in Arizona. The car was optioned out and was meticulously garaged and cared for by both owners.  The car runs and looks great!  It’s 300 miles into it's rebuilt original 401 cu. in. 6.6L V8 produces 280 hp. Drives better than a '63 Caddy and or Oldsmobile AND really rare and cooler. Great native survivor.  Original options include the rare magnum style factory wheels which absolutely make the car.  I was told only 260 '63 LeSabres were optioned with these wheels. I bring it to Coffee and Cars in Palos Verdes and it gathers nearly as many people and photographers as $1 Million+ Gullwing Mercedes and the other poster cars there. Many are excited to see a LeSabre convertible for the first time or get to see a great example again since childhood.  The brakes, steering, motor, are all in top notch condition.  I live in the hills and need those things to be perfect with two little kid passengers.  The upholestry and convertible top are 3 months old and perfect!  The dash pad has even been redone too!  The chrome on the car is bright near perfect original. Best of all is the paint is high quality PPG and 3 months old and perfect! There isn't a blemish on the paint.  I can't find a bit of rust.  There are no swirls, chips, pits, bubbles, cracks, runs or anything wrong with the exterior paint. Everything works except the radio.  The power new power antenna was never hooked up.  Even the clock works! Overall I'd give the car a 9 out of 10. Please feel free to contact to schedule a test drive. I reserve the right to end the option at any time as the car is advertised elsewhere and I have friends trying to trade cars for it. The car is part of a larger collection kept at the Torrance airport most of the year.  I have had my fun and now it is time to thin the herd and rotate the collection.  This has been fun to cruise to Hollywood, car shows and pick the kids up from school.  I am willing to lose some of my restoration costs knowing I had my fun and the car will live on another 50 years.   Good luck bidding. 

Here's a small Youtube video I took near my house showing how smoothly and quietly the car climbs the hills and handles corners: http://youtu.be/Grm858azkQw
