i just returned from a 1300 miles roundtrip drive from NY to VA...very dissapointed...not because of the waste of time but because the car really did have the 483 miles, but...because it was a shame the car was neglect4ed so much ...in truth the frame was completely straight rust free and flawless the stainbless was also perfect with the exception of a very minor very fixable little ding on the drivers fender...so far so good....it even came with the owners manual and original bill of sale for $20500.....it even had the original NCTs...the bad news .....all the rubber was dry rotted, the front and rear fascias were warped from i guess geat or something, they didnt conform well to the fenders/quarter panels...the interior was excellent but the seats were dry....the fuel distributor was removed...and possibly tinkered with....and there was somewhat of an oil leaked around the oil pan... and the stainless on the roof didnt line up too well with the doors although it was adjustable...and ofcourse the door hydraulics were not really holding up too good...my best estimation to make this thing pristine was about 8- 9000...bringing the car up to $24,000 i did make an offer of 13G... but the idiot didnt want to hear it....unfortunate and sad i would have loved to restore this one....what do you guys think??? was i right to pass it up??....and does anyone have a low up to 3500 mile or so car for sale??? thanx guys
