Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This is a 1979 Toyota Celica GT, sold for £7,500, that was stored for a long time and rediscovered after a storm. It has had some mechanical and cosmetic work done, but is not a full restoration and may need further maintenance.
Condition
6
The car has had some restoration work, including welding, paintwork, and interior refurbishment, but it's not a 'nut and bolt restoration' and the seller states that it will need ongoing maintenance and repair. There are some cosmetic issues, such as the need for paint in places, and mention of rust being removed. Thus, it's in good condition with moderate wear but requires some reconditioning.
