Vehicle description
Only Three Owners, all elderly. This car was purchased originally by an Elderly Couple in Arizona. Apparently, it was always garaged and used to go to their Weekend Home in AZ. When it was about 10 years old, they tried to trade the car in on a new Buick and the dealer wanted to give them nothing for it. Another Customer in the Dealer heard the commotion and when the couple left in a huff, followed them to their next stop. He bought the car from them. The new owner took the car from Arizona and brought it down to LaPaz, BCS Mexico. It was used there only part time. He was a snow bird from Canada and used it only in the Winter while in LaPaz. I purchased the car from him (he was my next door Neighbor). I"ve known the car for 7 years but have owned it only 5 years. I registered it with Maine License Plates while I lived in LaPaz. The car was brought back to the USA in May of 2018. It"s been in Virginia and now is titled and registered in Virginia since July 2018
Everything works with the exception of the following, Front Driver and Passenger and Right Rear windows are off the tracks (not good for Toll Booths or Drive up Windows). the car is air conditioned and it"s never really been something I"ve worried about fixing. The cassette tape deck doesn"t work, the power antenna and stereo work fine. Everything else works.
New tires, new wheels (1993 Roadmaster Style) all new lenses, even headlight glass is all new. The roof was repainted September of 2019 as it all of a sudden started to have paint fall off. (typical GM of the period)
I"ve driven the car about 7,000 miles since I"ve owned it. The cloth interior and wood delete was common in high temperature areas. The vinyl and leather just get destroyed by the Sun. This may effect the value of the car now as the Wood Trim is so popular, but if you wanted to, you could always retrofit the Wood trim pieces, they are available (used on ebay).
I"m moving possibly on my job again and simply have too many car to move with me so she"s going to have to be sold. Apparently, these cars are increasing in value. I paid 4,000 dollars 5 years ago but have spent about as much over the last 5 years in repairs and maintenance. My Starting price has no reserve so if there"s a bid, the car will sell. I"m listing a few other cars, I"m only selling two cars, of the 4 I"m listing so if I sell two, and this isn"t one of them, it won"t be listed again.
The black trim between too front and rear windows on the door were added this year and can be removed if desired. The car has tinted windows installed in Mexico which also can be removed easily.
The car must be picked up with in 4 weeks. I"m selling my home and the car is going to have to be gone as I"m moving. If the car isn"t picked up in 4 weeks, a storage charge of 80 bucks a week will apply. I simply need it gone so I can sell my house.
