THE CAR HAS BEEN IN A COLLECTION FOR MANY YEARS SO WHEN WE BOUGHT THE CAR WE REPLACED THE CARBURETOR (elec choke works), FUEL FILTER AND DRAINED THE OLD GAS. IT PROBABLY WOULDN'T HURT THE CAR TO RUN A FEW TANKS OF GOOD GAS W/ TECHRON CONDITIONER THRU HER AND GIVE HER A GOOD TUNE UP AFTER THAT. WE HAVE EXTENSIVELY PHOTOGRAPHED THE CAR WITH OVER 450 PHOTOS SO THAT YOU CAN SEE IT'S TRUE CONDITION. WE HAVE TWO KEYS AND THE CONVERTIBLE BOOT COVER FOR THE CAR. REMEMBER THE DISSATISFACTION OF A POOR QUALITY CLASSIC CAR WILL LAST LONGER THAN THE SATISFACTION OF A LOW PRICE DEAL.
