Wow. His is a clean interior and clean exterior car. I can't say the same fore the drivetrain. What's the deal there. It has leaks on about everything that can leak. That rear end especially. Wow the trans and engine are the same way did all the seals dry out and cause the leaks? I see that the interior is very clean good luck with the sale.

If this were my car, and it's every bit as good as the ad states, I would be contacting the Classic Center.

They buy, restore if necessary, and sell bona fide classics. If anyone would have a feel for the market value it would be them.

If they weren't interested, I'd imagine they could put me in touch with some of their clients (individuals, auction houses, museums, etc.) who would be.

If no one bit, then I'd reevaluate my asking price.

come on!
I've seen these low miles SD's sell for this kind of money, but only after EVERY SINGLE issue on the car is attended to.
I mean everything. all rubber, all axles, all vacuum lines, all carpeting, all door seals etc.
Totally , i see a lot of Vehicles online that the Seller is asking good money for and then you look at the pics and there's spots on the wood which shows it has not been cleaned , the trunk is all full of garbage etc. and oh one more thing vacuum the popcorn on the floor and wash the car why don't you !
