Please be sure to carefully read the "Disclaimer Information" on
this rare ultra elegant piece of automotive history. Thank you for
your interest. This vehicle is either classic, antique, exotic,
super rare, or all of the above. This vehicle is on consignment
from a very large collection of vehicles. They are being sold as
museum quality cars which means they may not run or drive and may
not have run or driven in numerous years. The vehicles are of a
condition where they would be on display in a museum. As museum
pieces we were required to disconnect or remove batteries and drain
fuel tanks. Once again, these vehicles have not been driven, or
even started in quite some time. While we do our best to provide
the highest quality muscle cars with an honest and reliable
description and realize the importance of transparency when selling
vehicles. That being said, we have not built, modified, changed or
personally owned this vehicle. Whether this vehicle is consigned or

complete history since new. We want to be clear and try to answer
any questions our customers might have prior to purchasing.
Additionally, we not only welcome but we encourage 3rd party
