This came with a house my wife and I just bought in So. Cal. The owner of the house had the car since 1970 and it has been parked in the same spot for 19 years. 71,000 original miles and it's completely original including the paint. No rust, 400, auto, a/c, tilt, console, Brown/Gold standard. The varmits have been living in the engine compartment so it will take a bit of cleanup. I'll be taking the fence down to get it out sometime next month when it cools down a bit.

Cool. Did that influence your decision to buy the house?

Sam,

I think he would have sold me the car without the purchase of the house. However, we really liked the house before the car was considered.
