DESCRIPTION
- Offered from eight years long term ownership with little use during that time
- Bare-metal restoration and refinished in Teal Blue with matching blue leather seating and blue carpets

- A wood-veneered dashboard, wood-rimmed steering wheel and a matching gearknob complete the excellent internal finish
