Condition
7
The car has been restored and repowered, with a rebuilt engine and new clutch/transaxle mounts. However, the rear section of the passenger floorpan has been patched, and the car is not equipped with a cabin heater. The odometer was reset to zero in 2022 and shows 1,600 miles, but total mileage is unknown. These factors indicate a 'Very Good' condition.
