My car's here. I have bought over 10 classic antique cars. Never has the seller's description been truly honest as to the car's condition, or has he or her omitted important information. This is the first time that the latter is thankfully untrue. The car is in amazing shape. The original interior is complete and in great shape. I see that at one point the seat inserts were redone. No rust, NO RUST THROUGHS. Nothing wrong with the kick panels, the floor boards, the trunk panel, etc.

All this car needs is to have its mechanics revived.

I just ordered 5 Vredestein's 155 SR 15 tires.

I see that at some point it had Koni shocks installed. Maybe new shocks.

Now I need brake lines/hoses. Clean out the tank. Filters. Work out the clutch as well.

Any advice is truly welcome.

P.S. Does anyone know a way to post more pictures per post? Does only the link below work?
