Current bid $8,100 reserve not met, 2 bids 5 days left in auction.

Sellers description:
I am selling my, matching number Mark II that I have owned for over 30 years. The paint is a an attractive color and looks fabulous on the car. The interior needs some work, front seats need re-upholstered, back seats have been hardly used and are in good condition. I bought this car from its original owner in '77 right after graduating from high school. I have driven it on vacations and short drives with the wife; car runs well but has been garaged for the last couple years. Tires are weather checked, door seals need replaced due to drying and could use a new exhaust. All glass is perfect, wood is in good shape but needs restored and power steering pump needs new presssure regulator.

The engine is a 3.8 liter 6 cylinger with a manual 4 speed electric overdrive transmission with only 90,918 miles. The engine runs good but with a slight timing chain rattle (I have new timing chain tensioner). The engine has excellent compression with good oil pressure. The chrome on the car is in super nice condition. I also have original shop manual and owner's manual as well.

I have clear Idaho title in my name. The car needs some TLC and I'm sure that it would be a wonderful car to restore with no body work needed and there's no rust and no dents. Due to the shape of the tires and power steering problem I would recommend transporting on trailer or with a shipper.
