@adarimont – Are there any know defects as far as equipment not being operational? Elec. top, window cranks, air-conditioning, heater, etc.? ...
OK as for the equipment The top works great the only this the switch was wire back wards so when you want it up you have to push it to the down but otherwise is is great. all the windows cranks work the ones back window on the passenger side is stiff but i never have them up so i have not worried about oiling it. the air is after market and it works great and blows cold air there is a toggle switch under the dash to turn it on but you still use the controls on the dash for the fan. OK the heat would work but at this time that cable that turns the heat on is maybe stuck or the part in the hose is frozen . I never us it, so i have never worried about fixing it. All of the wiring and electric part have been rewire and redone under the dash and about 15 year ago this car was rewired. The only one thing i do not have fixed is the horn it works but i believe it needs new part in the steering because when you turn the steering wheel the would honk at times. I rebuilt all the suspension because i wanted to lower it 2 in so it has all new springs new sway bars breaks are great. The Trans only has the maybe 480 miles on it and the motor is in great shape also. This car has not seen rain or been out in the rain in the 5 years i have own the car
