History (according to the owner):
The car was purchased 04-01-94 from an estate by John & Connie Housefield of Danville, IN. I have no reason to doubt that 38K are the original miles because of the lack of rust, original paint, condition of the interior, the inside of the trunk, engine compartment, etc. There are no records from the original owner but it looks like the gas tank, exhaust, and convertible top were replaced before 1994. I have proof that the mileage was 36,843 in August of 1999 and 37,406 on 7-11-00.
The Housefield’s apparently last drove the car in around 2012 and stored it. When I acquired the car last year, the fuel & cooling systems were clogged, and the engine oil pan, the power steering pump, the transmission, the heater core, and the differential all leaked. These have all been corrected and the car is bone dry underneath. I have receipts for over $8600 in repairs since November of 2018. The car is a strong #2 and the only thing that keeps it from being a #1 are some minor “spider” cracks in the paint in a couple areas. From 20 feet away, the car looks great. I considered having the whole car repainted but was told by several people that would kill the value and that buyers want the original paint.
