105 actual miles! That is correct, not a typo. The original temp tag is still in the windshield. The story is August Mews' friend got a job as a salesman so August bought a car from him to help him out. August didn't really need or want the car. He tried to return it and the dealer said no. So he parked it in a garage and never used it. A 2nd owner bought it 20 years ago because he thought it was amazing having such low miles. So of course he kept it garaged and did not add to the miles. He passed away and here it is. It must be one of the best 47 year old survivors to exist, certainly one of the lowest mile cars.
EXTERIOR: It is as close to a new 1974 as you'll find. Absolutely no rust for damage in the body. Nothing was dropped on it, no one hit the garage backing it out. I don't even find a door ding. It looks like it's all original paint. It is very smooth and glossy, not cracked or chalky. The original painted pinstripe isn't even worn. All the chrome and moldings are shiny and straight. Some tiny freckles on the bumper and taillights. The vinyl top has some cracks and was redyed. It has the landau bars, optional moldings, optional bumper guards and cornering lights. All the glass is crystal clear and amazingly enough it still has the window sticker attached. It also still has the EPA sticker and the temp tag attached to the windows. It still has the original Goodyear tires. The hubcaps are mint. The door jambs are mint. All the rubber weather strips are still soft.
INTERIOR: It is the same as sitting in a brand new 1974. No foul smells, no mice, no wear or tear. Everything looks new except a small crack on each front plastic armrest. No fading, upholstery is pristine, seat belts are excellent. Door panels, headliner, visors, carpet, instrument panel look new. The cigarette lighter has never been used. Starting instructions are still on the visor.
The glove box pouch has the manuals, pamphlets, second copy of the window sticker. The AM radio plays clear, the clock still works.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Absolutely original except for a replacement battery and 1 cable. It's never been spraycanned or touched up. It features power steering and power brakes. The 351 motor still has original decals and paint markings from the factory. The air cleaner is complete with all the ductwork. It has original hoses and belts.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The giant trunk has the optional carpet liner. Behind it the factory spatter finish is still pristine. The original spare tire has never been out of the car, still has the ink stamps on the tread. The jack has never been removed. The original weather strip is still soft.
UNDERSIDE: Underneath is completely original. As you'd expect it does have some light surface haze of rust. It's never been sprayed over. You can still see factory tags, stickers and paint markings. It even has the original exhaust system. Disc brakes up front.
This is a time capsule. Nobody can go back in time and recreate this car. Here is a chance to own something nobody else will have. Trailer it to shows, people will be amazed.
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video that explains the car's condition in detail.
**These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car make an appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded and you will be given a 1 year membership.
