This is an inexpensive way to have a fun car. I bought it in 2010 for just that reason.
The exterior looks decent, not perfect (shiney on the sides, a little dull on the top surfaces), but very little rust. The car originally came from Palm Springs, CA. and has only been driven in the summer and stored in the winter since living in Michigan.
The leather interior is in good condition. The front seats are clean and free of tears, the rear is coming unstiched, but the leather is in good condition. The side trim looks good. The dash pad is cracked in two places but still looks ok. The wood trim on the dash is covered with a carbon fiber-look overlay. The carpet is out of the car so you can see the floor but is still in good condition. the headliner is in good condition as is the glass in the car.
The wheels are Weld Stars, from the 1990's, very unique. Good rubber. The original brakes stop the car fine. The original suspension is in good working order.
The Chevy 305 with tuned port injection came from a 1985 Camaro IROC and was installed using a kit from John's Cars, Dallas, TX. I have no idea how many miles it has on it. It puffs a little oil on start up so it probablly needs valve stem seals but still runs strong and sounds good. The GM 700R4 trans shifts smooth through the original Jag shifter and makes this car an economical highway cruiser.
The exhaust flows through stock mufflers minus the rear resonators which have been replaced with some 3" stainless tips. Much better than the 1 3/4" stock exhaust, really sounds sweet.
The radiator is cooled by electric fan which is currently hard-wired "on". Just needs a new thermal switch.
The car has A/C but needs a new compressor, clutch, and receiver drier to operate again.
If you are looking for something you can drive right now as you fix the little stuff, this is an awesome deal for the money.
This is a used car with no warranties or guarantees implied. You should come look before you bid to be sure the car is what you expect. I wouldn't hesitate to drive the car anywhere.

Watch four hours of fantastic machinery at Le Mans Classic 2016
Tue, Jul 12 2016The 24 Hours of Le Mans came and went, but it wasn't the end of the automotive activities at Circuit de la Sarthe. This past weekend, the venerable racetrack was host to the 2016 Le Mans Classic, in which seven decades of vintage racecars once again competed for glory. The event started with qualifying on Friday, July 8, and racing on the following Saturday and Sunday. Six "grids" of cars each included a different historic racing era, including the early days from 1923 to 1939, as well as that famous period from 1966 to 1971 that featured the all-conquering Ford GT40. The wide range of eligibility also permitted some unusual machines to show up, such as a 1950 Cadillac Series 61 and a 1974 Dodge Charger. This year also marked the debut of the Group C class for more recent Le Mans racers from 1982 to 1993. The 1991 Le Mans-winning Mazda 787B was not present, but one of the Peugeot 905 race cars that gave the marque a remarkable 1-2-3 finish at the 1993 Le Mans came back for the event. The Le Mans Classic also featured the Jaguar Classic Challenge just for cars made by the feline automaker, and the race attracted a bit of human star power. Chris Harris of Top Gear participated in the marque-specific race while behind the wheel of a new continuation Lightweight E-Type. And although the event happened over the weekend, you can catch most of the action via the recorded live stream above. It features a full four hours of vintage racing with commentary in both French and English. It's a great chance to see one of the best combinations of classic cars and historic venues out there.
