Condition

The car presents well with a repaint in metallic blue and retrimmed black leather interior. However, the seller notes several cosmetic issues including chipped paint, an "orange peel" finish, evidence of body filler, and wear on the soft tops and tonneau covers. Mechanically, the overdrive unit operates inconsistently, the gearbox has worn synchromesh, and leaks/corrosion are noted on underbody components.
