The drive shaft just had two new universal joints installed and was spin balanced.

4 new BF Goodrich Radial TA tires 245-60-14 with less than 100 miles on them. The front end was aligned when tires were installed. The old tires were dry rotted from sitting, o I replaced them.

All new dual exhaust with factory style mufflers. New exhaust manifold gaskets were installed at the time. Thecar runsquiet!

The transmission has recently been serviced, here are no issues.

New wiper bladeshave beeninstalled.

All interior lights have been replaced and work as they should. The interior lighting really shines at night, ll gauges have a very nice appearance.

The outside rear axle bearings were just replaced along with changing the fluid in the rear differential. Posi additive was included.

The heater fan blows strong and quiet, he heat works excellent. The horn blows, he cigarette lighter works, he wipers wipe and all components work as they should.

All four coil springs are new and correct, long with all new front end components. This 442 has an aggressive stance and drives straight down the road with no excessive play in the steering wheel.

All brake components are new as well, ncluding brakes, rake drums, rake rotors, heel cylinders, alipers etc.

There is new wheel well chrome and new door sills.

The original glass is all in very good to excellent condition.

This car retains all of its original rust free body panels and has never been in an accident.

Dependable enough to drive across country, ly in and drive home.

The convertible top is the factory installed color of black, t has been replaced and is in excellent condition. Theweather stripingand pads were also replaced.

Completely rust free undercarriage and frame. The floors and trunkare insolid original condition with no signs of rust.

The seat belt buzzer sounds if the seat belt is not connected when the car is put in gear.

The key buzzer sounds when the key is installed.

This 442 is a beautiful car, ot a show car, ut also not a Daily Driver. This 442 is reserved for driving on nice days only.

It is an extremely well-maintained original vehicle, ompletely operable and in very good overall condition.

The exterior paint, rim and mechanics are not in need of reconditioning. The paint is mostly original anddoes show some normal scrapes anddings, nd is worn off is a few areas(patina), owever this only adds to the originality of the car.

There is absolutely no rust.The paintwould only require minor touch-ups if desired, owever I wouldn't change a thing.

This 442 drives straight and smooth down the road with no play in the steering wheel, o rattles and no vibrations. It runs, rives and shifts perfectly and is a pleasure to own and can be driven anywhere with confidence.

The interior is in excellent condition.

Low production car, pproximately 1042 produced.

I would value this car at $36000, nd I have it insured through State Farm to that amount.

Garage kept and covered, his is an amazing car with no disappointments.

Clear Ohio title.

Best of luck!

Mike
