| This is a nearly perfect, pristine, gorgeous car which has had only one owner before me. The man who owned this car had it stored in his drive-out basement (65 degree temperature controlled) for 40 years. THAT'S RIGHT, IT HAS ONLY 24,839 MILES. The exterior is near perfect (small chips, less than 1/8" diameter which are baerly noticeable) except for a small wrinkle on the rear driver's fender where the previous owner mis-placed the jack when lifting the car. The interior is NEAR PERFECT, JUST LIKE THE DAY IT WAS DRIVEN OUT OF THE FACTORY. There is one place on the seat where the stitching came apart. An easy fix. There is no deterioration in color, contrast, fabric, chrome, etc. SPECIFICATIONS: General
