Drive long distances with confidence

A one of a kind LOOK with get in and go reliability. Our longest round trip was 1,500 trouble free miles when my wife and I drove it to the 2015 Cruisin The Coast event andndash; people loved this car everywhere we went. We had the time of our life. This is a very comfortable car to travel in for hours at a time. It is super easy to drive with the power steering and power brakes and if you are a music lover you will love professionally installed sound system that is neatly tucked away. I installed the air conditioning in 2015 and it works great. The under dash unit is the best on the market and its vintage looking which is a prefect complement to the super cool interior.

Well preserved low miles WAGON. When I purchased the wagon I was told that the 74k miles on the odometer where original. While there is no way to prove it I can say that everything about the car makes it believable. It is a really tight car. I have driven it close to 6,000 trouble free miles during my ownership. The odometer is currently showing 79,253 miles however when I sell it the State of Texas requires any vehicle over 25 years old to be sold as miles EXEMPT.

While it may have some weathered surfaces, this vehicle has clearly been loved and intentionally preserved for 58 years. The weathered surfaces are mainly surface rust and rust pitting in areas where the thin factory paint simply wore too away andhellip;. all of which translates into the REAL PATINA everyone loves and people now go to great lengths to replicate. It also has some of the typical rust issues around the back wagon door and window but nothing to worry about where long term
