Vehicle description
I lost rented garage storage for this car perhaps eight years ago, and rather than get new storage, I decided to park it in my driveway, to keep it near me and allow me to enjoy it better. It proved to be a very bad mistake, because unknown to me, water entered through the rubber seals, collected under the floormats, and created high-humidity conditions that corroded the brightwork and rotted the interior plastics and leather. As it stands now, the engine hasn"t been turned over in at least seven years and the trunk and both doors are difficult or impossible to open because of swelling of the metal due to moisture. The tires hold air but are more than forty years old. It ran beautifully when I parked it in my driveway, but now it"s as I describe. As far as I know, it"s complete except for the hood ornament and battery hold-down tray. The pictures were taken in March of last year, except for the last two, which were taken this month.
