Items that may require attention soon:
Headliner is starting to sag at the rear. (Was planning to have redone before lockdown, could be done before sale or worked into the price)
Needs an alignment, I was planning to have this done, but put it on hold because of lockdown.
Wheels could use a balance, I noticed some very slight vibration at certain highway speeds, I think some of the weights might have fallen off while cleaning the wheels.
Otherwise this car is ready to go with no issues.

Reasonable offers will be considered but should be presented with the understanding that this vehicle represents a significant investment of professional labor in addition to the cost of parts. This is not a showroom low mileage garage queen, those have sold for 3x-5x my asking price, so don’t expect perfection. The interior and exterior shows little wear no major scratches or dents, few small imperfections (small hard to notice dents on driver side doors), but really good considering it’s a 20 yr old car. Agreed Value classic car insurance is very reasonable. No rush to sell, but I no longer need this car since I am working from home 100% starting in Jan before the lockdown and I would like to reduce the size of my fleet.
