Car runs and drives very well. The motor has approx. 30k on a rebuild. my mechanic thinks it has a cam in it as it idles a bit lumpy and has better power than most 360s. Radiator was replaced at the same time. Car has Incredible oil pressure. runs at the top of the gauge. even hot. on the road. Uses absolutely no oil. The car does not leak. burn or use any fluids. The motor does not smoke. knock or tick and the transmission (torqueflite 904) shifts as it should. The car always starts easily- hot or cold. Needs a vacuum advance installed on the distributor (I have the part. but runs well enough that I haven't bothered to put it in yet) and a rear tranny mount replaced. it's a little loose- will cure the slight driveline vibration that it has. A/C is currently inop but the compressor has a rebuild tag on it. haven't looked into it and the cruise linkage is unhooked from the carb. haven't looked into that either.
The front seat was reupholstered at some point in a different cloth and is a little faded. Dash is good with no cracks. Even the digital clock works and keeps good time!
Although the car is very rust free and the chrome is in very good condition. the paint is definitely a 10 footer with fading on the top surfaces and some peeling around the edges and around the sunroof. The car was originally 2-tone Spinnaker White and Nightwatch Blue but was painted in the past what appears to be B-5 blue. Has (5) of the rare(r) cast turbine wheel covers. There is also some scaly rust in the trunk where it has leaked in the past. Being a CA car. the door window seals and trunk gasket are a bit dry and crumbly. My mechanic loves working on this car as the underneath is so clean. there isn't even surface rust under there. I have personally driven this car on several 200-600 mile trips with no issues whatsoever. The car averages about 12-15 MPG around town and 18 MPG or so on the highway. I have seen 21 MPG on a trip. I get 'thumbs up' and waves and smiles every time I drive the car. I would love to keep it.
All in all a nice and reliable car. I was planning on keeping it. so I made sure it was done right. but lost my winter storage. and the car is too clean to leave out in the weather this coming winter. I can assist you with shipping as I am familiar with it. but ultimately the pick-up of the car is up to you. Will be more than happy to meet your shipper or pick you up at the airport/bus terminal/train station if you choose to drive it home. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or if you would like more pictures.
