Condition

The car has several cosmetic and mechanical issues. Cosmetically, there are paint imperfections, cracked weatherstripping and wood trim, dash cracks, and desilvering in the rearview mirror. Mechanically, the speedometer bounces, the coolant temperature gauge is inaccurate, the clock is inoperative, and the seller notes that the front subframe mounts, engine mounts, and transmission mount need replacement. The antenna does not retract, and the kickdown switch doesn't work.
