The car is sold as a renovation object. Current owner bought the car at auction to renovate but there is not enough time. The information is therefore somewhat sparse. The general condition of the body is described as OK. There are various scratches, dents and rust. The unusual two-tone paint has various wear all around. Glass panes are described as being in OK condition without scratches. The chrome has surface wear all around. The sunroof is a bit stiff and needs a helper to open. There are old Michelin tires mounted on the rims.
The interior must have been changed by the previous owner. There is various surface wear in the leather on the chairs. The passenger seat has damage to the side support. Steering wheel, buttons and controls with light surface wear. Ceiling
