No charges
Yes we can hold the car till then
Last question, I promise (for now): were I to bid successfully, I might not be able to take delivery until around 7 September. Would you be willing to store it till then, and if so, what would be the charge? Thanks,
BID: $6,500
Are there any components significantly older than the rebuilt engine? Radiator, water pump, steering mechanism? Brakes? Oil pan? When were the suspension components last replaced? Is the transmission original and when was it last overhauled? Was much body repair or rust remediation done when it was last repainted? Any sign of gasket deterioration around windshield, backlight or trunk lid that might occasion leaks? (I understand that you have all the repair records, but since I can't see the car or records now, I'm asking questions that could otherwise be answered by inspecting them.) What's the fastest sustained speed it runs comfortably, without too much shudder or excessive vibration? My impression from reading is that the drum brakes on these models are something of an achilles heel. That doesn't bother me (I grew up driving a 1971 FIAT 500), but I wonder what your take on them is.
Car runs very cool it has no thermostat that's 180° the radiator is Flowing excellent don't have any cooling issues overheating or in traffic
How well does it run in hot weather?
