This car was restored by the previous owner, excellent body. Interior is also is really good condition. Car is really reliable, i have driven this car about 30-50km's daily since i have owned it and hasn't missed a beat. Car is located in Canberra and has ACT Rego till 27/4/2011.

some rust in the lower section of the front left quarter panel, and a tiny bit in the front of bonnet and back of boot lid, however besides that rest of the body is rust free. I have a replacement lower section of the panel which i will give to whoever buys the car.

Some tapping noise from the top end of the engine, i believe this may just be the tappets need adjusting.
Brakes can be a bit squeaky every now and then, the pads don't need replacing.
Leaks a tiny bit of oil from the rear of the sump
Drivers seat worn
The parcel tray that sits under the dash is split.
Carpet that is in the car is not made for it and has been modified to fit.

I also have a front bench seat, front bumper bar and pair of pioneer 3 way 6x9 300w speakers that will go with it.

This car is a pleasure to drive and is a real head turner, it will be a real joy for the new owner and will not disappoint, will be sad to see it go. $6000 firm, any questions or to have a look call me (Alan) on 0422926020 or email at alan.reid86@gmail.com
