I purchased this mostly original car in 1978. It was a Southern California car.Idrove itsparingly. It has spent the majority ofthe last 38 years covered in a warehouse in a dry desert environment. I decided to update it withoutcompromising the original character of the car in 2014. The car was evaluated by Pantera Parts Connection and was found to be an above averagerust free car. There is no known body damage and the undercarriage has no dents or dings from improper jacking. I invested $19k in safety and performanceimprovements tothe car. The complete list of maintenance/upgrades is too long to list here but the major items include: a complete cooling system upgrade including a large aluminum radiator with dual electric cooling fans and a high flow water pump, thehalf shafts were rebuilt with greasable u-joints, a new distributor with electronic ignition was installed, new carbuerator and intake manifold were installed, the brakes were completely rebuilt, all rubber hoses were replaced, metal gears were installed in the power window motors and the headlight lift motor, and a new rear sway bar was installed . Pantera Parts Connection did of the above work. The rear trunk liner was recarpeted by another vender. The original tools, tool bag and owners manual are included with the car. In my opinion, the only weakness is the carpeting in the front trunk space which needs to be replaced and the drivers seatback bolster on the door side which is worn from sliding in and out of the car.
