• There are no perfect vehicles. The key imperfections are (in priority order):
• The vehicle has not run in about 25 years, so the oil, fuel, coolant, brake fluid and the tires should be changed before attempting to start and drive it.
• There are minor leaks to be addressed at the radiator fins and the master cylinder line fitting. • The frame to the right of the transmission has been cut away to allow the exhaust to run through it. A small plate should be welded back in to restore the frame’s strength. This is not expensive, but it requires a welder. • It appears that there was a minor collision in the rear bumper.
