The car may be again for sale in the next few weeks. Medical issues have made it increasingly difficult to keep and enjoy the car. I will make a new post with pertinent information and many pictures when I re-list it for sale.

Beautiful car...I wish I could afford it! Good luck with the sale :D
price is still "make offer"?
I cant see 2500 although the upgrades offset the cons. a very good looking car btw, a little tlc and is golden!
Was changed to "Make Offer" yesterday when it was decided to sell. I was looking for $2500 initially, but I admit even that was a bit unrealistic despite being able to "wait and see".
If the car is coming back from NC, we should be in WV on the 18th.
Thanks for the positive comments so far. I wish I could give it the tlc it needs, but I am not able to do more than the basics. I would really like the car to go to someone who appreciates and loves these cars than someone who will run it into the s heap.
Sure, the Michigan winters have roughed it up a bit from it's condition when we moved from Florida. However, for it's age, mileage and use as a daily driver, I think it would be hard to find a cat this good with original paint/body work; especially one that ended up in the northern states. (I could be wrong of course)
