When looking through the service history it should be noted a new timing chain and water pump were done at 58,000 miles as preventative maintanence.

The Carfax is clean and shows no evidence of an accident or ever being repainted. You will notice some ‘scuff marks’ in the paint (see photos) where apparently one of the prior owners took the car through car washes. Otherwise, the paint looks fantastic. The hardtop shows no evidence of scratches or marks, all the glass, and the brown Haartz cloth soft top are in excellent condition.

All exterior lights, turn signals, brake lights, and fog lights function.

The brown leather interior is in excellent condition, showing no wear spots, tears, or broken seams. The dashboard and carpet look great and all the factory gauges and options (cruise control, defroster, heater) function. Only the power antenna, clock, and the A/C do not work (compressor comes on but it needs refrigerant). The after-market Pioneer AM/FM/CD stereo player works fine, but please note the original Becker radio is not included.

The factory tools and first aid kit are included and what looks to be, the original spare tire.

Owner is selling for personal reasons.

While we do our best to provide quality cars with an honest and reliable description and realize the importance of transparency when selling vehicles. We have not built, modified, changed, or personally owned this vehicle. Even though this vehicle is being sold by Kurzmann’s Auto Brokerage we do not know the vehicles complete history since new. We want to be clear and try to answer any questions our customers might have prior to purchasing. Additionally, we do welcome 3rd party independent inspections. Please inquire prior to purchase to make sure the advertised vehicle has not already been sold. If a customer chooses to purchase sight unseen (many of our customers choose this option) the customer accepts the vehicle AS IS and WHERE IS and understands we cannot address concerns after purchase. For this reason, it's important all concerns are addressed prior to purchase. We make every effort to present accurate and reliable information, but use of this information is voluntary, and should only be deemed reliable after an independent review of its accuracy, completeness, and timeliness. It is the sole responsibility of the customer to verify the existence of options, accessories, and the vehicle condition before time of sale. 

I have been an active internet seller of vehicles on eBay and other Motor Vehicle websites for more than 20 years and maintained a 100% rating during most of that period.  Approximately 15 years ago I started an online service assisting owners of Classic, Vintage, and Muscle cars to sell their vehicles on the internet without them leaving the garage.  These are private individual owners who do not want to deal with the public and all the endless phone calls, “Tire kickers”, and other nonsense that goes on when trying to sell a car. They just want someone to sell it!!

Thank you
