Unlike most so-called "restoration" cars this 1800 is NOT a basket case. It runs and drives reasonably well. The engine is strong and starts easlily. The transmission shifts well and the overdrive works. The body is rust-free (the previous title was from California). There is some visible body filler that is cracking from previous damage and the paint is showing its age. The interior needs restoration as the dash is badly damaged and the rear seats need to be re-upholstered. The headliner is the original and is dropping from the roof. I have new door and window seals but they are not installed. The speedometer does not work so I do not know what the actual miles of the car are. This vehicle is in need of restoration, but with some work it could be an excellent daily driver or with a lot of work it could be restored beautifully
