Still motivated by the original 265 CI V-8 engine and Powerglide automatic transmission, it has been well maintained for many years. Sporting a pushbutton radio, the pristine two-seater rolls on Firestone 6.70-15 bias-ply wide whitewall tires with full-size wheel covers. The California car features a beautifully restored top and bright-red interior, presenting well, especially under the hood. The engine and its surrounding compartment are very well detailed with a chrome air cleaner and valve covers being the noteworthy highlights.
