                                             WOW !  WOW ! & WOW  AGAIN !!!

         Check out this " truly wonderfull" car.  So many times you will  see a car advertized as "low mileage" , "survivor", or  other buzz words

    describing it. But more times than not, it turns out to be a car that although it may have low miles etc., A  lot of restoration is needed

     or was done before the car could live up to the description given in the ad. Sometimes, it's just a lie !.

          NOT HERE!. Let me tell you about this car. This was a one owner car from the time it was new until the owner passed away and

     i purchased it from the family just  about two years ago. I was told that the car was garage kept since new and never exposed to bad weather

     and i   believe it!.  You will too when you see it in person. It is a rust and corrosion free automobile !.

       It is "COMPLETELY" original .) and it is  in just about as close to  " original new" condition  as i could imagine a car to

   be !. It has 32700 documented miles on it  Great service records along with the original  bill of sale and " protecto- plate."

      It's  really quite amazing .When you look at things like the carpet, the headliner, the fabric on the seats, etc.

     you can't help but wonder how someone was able to maintain a car in this condition for so many years.

      Here are some details.

     _____________________________EXTERIOR_______________________________________________________________

           As i hope you can see in the photos, the body on the car is as straight as an arrow. the dark blue paint is clear&bright with

      only a " very few", very minor", surface scratches hardly worth noting but i don't want to leave anything out.

            The chrome bumpers as well as the the grill and all the exterior bright work including the wheel covers are like new Even the rubber

      bumper guards are in great shape.

          There is however , a very  small dent in the aluminum fender trim on the rear passenger  side. I think that it rubbed something in the garage.

          It is very insugnifficant. The White vinyl top is perfect condition.  All of the glass is in great condition including the windshield, side and rear   

       glass and side mirror glass.  The headlights,taillights, parking lights, emblems, etc. are all in perfect condition. Open the door s and check

     out the sill plates and hinges as well as the paint etc.

   ____________________________INTERIOR_______________________________________________________________

        You know the old saying "a picture is worth a thousand words" ?  well take a very close look a the photos of the interior.

 and  remember "It's all original !".  The headliner looks like it's a day old. The seat covers  don't show any wear and when

 you sit down on them, you feel like you are in a new car. a new car. The carpet looks like no one ever stepped on it.  The arm

rests are in perfect condition as are the door panels. All the interior brightwork ( door handles, trim, etc.) is like new.

  The dash is the same ( like new). All of the guages work. The dash glass is clear & bright  but as you may expect, the clock doesn't

 work !. I wonder why the clocks never seem to work in older cars.?.

  _______________________________MECHANICAL________________________________________________________-

      The 351M/400 motor runs perfectly and even gets good gas mileage. The car  is equipped with power steering that steers effortlessly.

      power brakes that stop on a dime and an  automatic transmisson that shifts smoothly and doesn't leak. It even  has  air conditioning

      that blows "ice cold". The tires are brand new. The original radio still  works and there are remote control right & left side exterior  mirrors .

           The car sits straight and level on the tight and solid suspension. No rust under the car. The exhaust system is good.

       The front end, brakes, steering and electrical system are all good. No problems anywhere !!!.

         The car has been "Zebart" and" Hercules" rust proof protected from new".

     ________________________-OVERVIEW____________________________________________________________________-
