radial tires have just been installed. All the chrome was removed
and re-chromed.This car drives absolutely magnificently - must be
driven to be believed - does not miss a beat and purrs like a
kitten - drives straight as an arrow with no strange road wobbles,
shakes or rattles - a truly remarkable daily driver that will give
any modern day car a run for it's money! The transmission shifts
smoothly through the gears and the car has four new white-wall
tires! Please note that the car also boasts its original spare
wheel and jack in the trunk along with original trunk spec carpet
and lining, an extremely rare and unusual occurrence as you will no
