Finished in the timeless Kingston Gray, this Series 60 Special Sedan sports a fully restored tan mohair interior complemented by brown leather upholstery. The dash and all related components have been restored and present very well and most notably the beautiful dash. While it does show some signs of its decades-old restoration, the quality of craftsmanship has allowed it to stand the test of time. The reason for the superb amount of excellence put into making this sedan what it is stems from its low odometer reading of under 7,000 miles. To substantiate this, a file of restoration receipts dating to 1988 and attributed to a gentleman in Carson City, Nevada accompanies this car. A look along the exterior of this vehicle reveals a small amount of wear from years of cleaning and polishing yet the bodywork and paint remain in above average condition with chrome and trim that leave only a little more to be desired. The trunk is correctly restored and requires only a bit of attention to bring it back to its 1988 quality level. The new owner of this lovely vehicle will be presented with the option of enjoying this automobile as it sits for use in cruises and parades, or may choose to invest some time and love to make it a real award winner.
