About this car
This car shows just 14,575 miles, finished in blue over blue MB-Tex, from a California collection, and the recent work is already done: a new air-conditioning compressor, an R134a conversion, new shock absorbers, and a new fuel pump, with a clean California title. It is the ready-to-drive six-cylinder car in this collection; the recent work reads like a recommissioning checklist that someone else has already completed.
What the photos show
- blue paint is glossy and even in every sampled exterior shot, no repaint bill visible
- chrome bumpers, grille and stacked headlights are bright, no rechrome bill showing
- matching blue hubcaps and whitewall-style trim rings are tidy, no wheel bill visible
- door handles and mirror chrome show light pitting in close-ups, a small polish bill, not a rechrome bill
- seats are only seen blurred through the glass, so can't judge the interior condition or a trim bill
- can't judge the dash, no dash photo in the sampled set, so budget as unknown
- can't judge the engine bay, no engine photo in the sampled set, so budget as unknown
- can't judge the underside, no underside photo in the sampled set, so rust stays an unknown cost
Money: at $15,900 sold, the sampled photos are exterior only and the paint and chrome support the money on looks, but interior, engine and underside are unjudged in the sample at this price
