Presented today in unrestored condition, this time-warp example still retains its assembly crayon markings from factory, which are visible under the hood. The interior appears in showroom new condition with the seats, original carpet padding, door panels, dash and center console left nearly untouched after 40 years. This remarkably original car is free of rust, with its only deviation from factory delivery being an exterior repaint it received approximately 10 years ago, being painted again in Solar Yellow.

Mechanically, this car also remains in excellent condition. More recent mechanical services include a new master cylinder, wheel cylinders, a complete fluid exchange, and a new battery. The engine is said to run very strong with the car covering less than 35,000 miles from new. Included with the sale is the original tool kit and Owner's Manual.
