    Condition overall is very good. Nice paint, nice cosmetics. New leather and carpet (expensive). New 16” stock design wheels and Pirelli tires. It has a new Blaupunkt original design stereo right out of the NOS box in place but not hooked up. Runs good, tends to need a battery charge when sitting for awhile. Don’t they all? It tends to sit long periods as Ive been too busy to enjoy. Less than 49k miles. No belt change. Alternator rebuilt after I bought it (yes, this required taking the back of the car apart). Has Birdman upgraded fuse blocks for safety. Previous owner from AZ spotty with records. No obvious needs other than belt service. Mostly original, fun little driver. So pretty. Looking towards a storage issue next year and it’s time for someone else to love this car long-term. $59,000. Located in Central Illinois, USA.

    Well maintained, could easily reach the "early NON CAT" specs with some work

    THE one to have. I'd take one of those over any Vette out there, new or older.

    So, I’ve heard from many nice people who like the car and want to talk about it, so it motivated me to take it for another spin before the snow hits and I put the cover on it for the winter. Took a little buzz around town and snapped a couple pics in the park. It reminded me why I bought the little cream puff in the first place.

    Steve, she certainly does present exceedingly well. Especially with the fall foliage here in Illinois as a backdrop.

    The market has definitely changed for sure since last year.
