Classic Car Overview
An interesting history, sold in California and used there until 1976, sold and driven to Wisconsin, kept in climate controlled environment until 2016, at that time engine and trans rebuilt, brakes and other work done, few miles of use since then. So, not a completely restored car but with a lot of work done and very little wear and tear.
Excellent body painted in primrose, no signs of bubbling or cracking. No overspray or any sign of a quickie paint job. Floors are close to mint condition, no rust, no damage, no undercoating, just all factory sheet metal. Chrome very nice throughout
Very clean interior, doesn't look like many miles on the seats or carpeting. Dash covering is excellent all of the gauges work and look like they were recently rebuilt (that is, face decals are excellent as are chrome rims). Top is very good, side curtains amply serviceable (and fit nicely), has a full tonneau.
Runs exceptionally well....no smoke, 70 psi oil pressure when warm, 145-150 psi compression, quiet valves, no sign of oil leaks. Gearbox seems to be excellent, quiet in operation, AND it has perfect working overdrive.....clicks 'in' and 'out' quickly (a good sign of excellence).
Exhaust is quiet, has 15" wire wheels, disc brakes, seat belts, wiring harness appears to be new, not sure there is much left. Ride is excellent, steering okay (never very good on TRs), excellent low speed torque (and starts effortless in 2nd gear). Runs cool on a warm day, even had the correct spare wheel/tire (for notes, a 165 tire DOES NOT fit in the spare wheel well but a 155 does).
