Here is another car which doesn’t need a full restoration: it oozes “patina” from every spot and it looks as original as it leaved the factory 55 years ago.
Of course it is not a driveable car as it is parked from many years ago but the seller says that the engine turns so we guess that with few touches it could even start, but the point here is that the car look seriously original wherever you look at it.
The paint is faded, of course, and interiors are tired but they’re not a mess: they only clearly show their age along with the engine bay which is correct in every detail; this is the right candidate to be leaved as is: just rebuild the 2.5l engine, brakes and trasmission and then drive it as is (afer a deep cleaning job, of course). Find it for sale at €19,000 (today $22,000) here in Catania, Italy.
