This was an Arizona car for most of it’s life so it has no rust underneath and the only rust on the body is surface rust on the tailgate and rot under the rear window. A good tailgate and window patch panel are included to make it perfect. It has a 400 cu. in. engine and FMX transmission. It always starts right up. The car runs and drives. It’s got a transmission leak at the pan or at the dipstick, but it shifts fine since I always kept it topped off. The front power seat adjuster has a stuck cable. The carburetor needs to be cleaned, as the idle is not smooth due to sitting. It needs little to be perfect. It’s a true survivor.
