The engine is in great running order and the car could be a daily driver. I have enjoyed the car since 2014, but now it is someone else's turn to have some fun with it! I have no idea the actual mileage of the car, however, I have put $6000 miles on it since the engine was rebuilt in 2014.
$30K invested, asking $25K
