The car is extremely clean, probably the cleanest all original/unrestored c900 I've seen in a looooong time!
It was some sort of dealer demo/showroom car, therefore some funky options. It's got the inca wheels, a beautiful set of e-code headlights (usually they are all pitted and faded), rain guards on the front windows, the rear louvers, center armrest, an alarm system with hood lock, and some really wild pin striping, all documented on the original window sticker.
All and all it's a fine example of a car that's beginning to disappear. My plans are to keep it as original as possible. It just got towed to the shop this morning to diagnose the smoking issue. I'm fairly certain it's valve seals, which I was quoted $250 for (and my Indy always comes in under budget).
After that it's off to the body shop to get what tiny bit of rust there is fixed. The fuel door has some rust along the edge, and there is 1 tiny spot about the size of a finger on the driver's door where it looks like it was opened and hit something. Other than that a few very tiny nicks and chips in the paint. For very little $ this should be an amazing example!
The interior is the weak point, but I have a friend that can redo the headliner and door and sill panels and such. Then the search will begin for a good driver's seat in red leather.
Thanks again for the compliments. I really lucked into this one!
