Gave 2500 for the car. Considering it's age, its in pretty darn good shape. I can't tell if the paint is original, we can see some silver where the paint peeled near a headlight, not sure if that's the original paint or undercoat. I think a good cleaning should shine it up nicely. It starts right up and runs great, has a slight surge at idle when cold - maybe a vacuum problem? Brakes are good. 130,000 miles are actually kilometers, so thats a good thing. It will need a new timing belt I'm sure. All electrics seems to work except the driver side mirror. Also, can someone explain what the radio knobs on the floor are about and what should have been under the driver seat, amp perhaps? PO replaced the radio.

This is the youngest in our fleet of toys - 1930 Ford, 1951 International, 1967 Jeep. We must have needed another project. :roll eyes:

Can someone point me in the direction of good service manuals, pdf format is fine.

Looking forward to digging into this project, very thankful this forum is here.

Thanks all!
