My 3 year old grandson and I went out on a Sunday morning cruise.
We put about 30 miles on the car, we both loved it! Great cruiser-
smooth, easy to drive, comfortable. Not to mention it gets the
looks, how often do you see a 59? Someone will be very pleased with
this car.
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure
your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do
a walk around video that explains the car's condition in
detail.
