If you are ready to buy and want to negotiate price, it's probably a good idea to contact the seller and talk directly with them.

Who ever buys this ride needs to secure the battery down - it's missing the mount / bolt.

$7,000.00 or best reasonable offer considered. Mileage is now 119,400 and is used as a daily driver. The car runs great. The engine is very tight, shifting is very smooth and is fun to drive on long and short trips. It is always a head turner!
