Up for bid is a 1985 Chrysler with 64k original two owner miles showing on 5 digit odometer. Second owner since 1988, condition, affidavit, and odometer history confirm mileage. Not driven regularly since 2006, but I've driven it locally enough to know there are no storage issues - drives great. Rear wheel drive with power provided by Chrysler's 5.2L (318 cubic inch) V8 and automatic transmission - decent blend of power and economy (about 20 mpg hwy.) Loaded with lots of power goodies and gorgeous leather. So solid that I wouldn't belive it was a local car without the history report - SOLID undercarriage, and only one very small rust bubble on the body (not a hole) in a hard to see spot. Some typical early Chrysler clearcoat peel, but even that doesn't keep this car from looking great. Turn the key and go - no surprises.
NO RESERVE.

Condition Report
ENGINE: Runs on all six cylinders without smoking, missing, ticking or knocking. Runs at proper temperature and no check engine light. Good battery & charging system. Recent oil change. Runs smooth.
TRANSMISSION: Performs flawlessly. Engages gears quickly and shifts through all four forward gears and reverse with good downshift and torque converter performance. Clean fluid with no burn odors or noticeable leaks.
EXTERIOR: Body: Body is in great shape. The ONLY rust is a small bubble in front of the right rear wheel. NO bondo, no collision repair, no other outer rust. Exceptional for age. Paint: Paint is nice, shiny and all original. Some clearcoat peel in two spots as pictured. Other: Front and rear chrome bumpers are in great shape with some fading but no rust. Undercarriage is SUPER solid with some surface scale but no rot - see the pics. Vinyl top is beautiful - obviously garage kept. Glass is all good. Hubcaps are in good shape with no pitting or curb rash.
INTERIOR: Interior is in very nice shape. Non-smoker's car - no foul odors. Leather seats, door panels, dash and carpets are in very nice shape - seats are exceptional. Headliner is all there but sagging from lack of adhesion of 23 year old glue. Very nice interior overall; way above average for age.
ELECTRICAL STUFF: All inspection items work (lights, horn, wipers, etc.) The a/c works but needs a charge - still R12, but I'll convert it to the new refrigerant if you bring the $30 kit. Also, radio does not work, and front windows work slowly and need some help going up sometimes. All other equipment works as designed - rear power windows, power locks, dual power seats, hot heat, power antenna, cruise control, tilt wheel, and rear defroster work.
DRIVEABILITY: Drives beautifully. Suspension & steering are tight as you'd expect of the miles. Aligned well - tracks straight. Brakes have good linings, no noise, no vibration. Tires have about 50% tread remaining all around on 2 matched pairs of good quality radials. Exhaust is solid and quiet with no leaks. Good power to get going and keep moving - nice highway cruiser. Very nice driving car as expected of miles.
Car has been inspected and will include a new sticker for NY residents.
