The car has been refurbished in 1995 and has had a replacement cylinder head installed in 2019. However, there is noted damage to one of the headlight areas from an accident, the windshield washer pump and reservoir are missing, the driver's window sticks, and the analog clock is not functional. These issues indicate moderate wear and require some reconditioning.
