The car has been refurbished twice, with the most recent in 2020, and has been owned by the current seller for 34 years. The paint was redone in 2020, and the interior seats were retrimmed. The soft top has a tear, and the odometer was reset during a rebuild, so true mileage is unknown. It has several upgrades for improved reliability and usability.
