Beautiful !

1.Clean and Treat the Leather with Lexol ,Before you put it away for the Winter.
['Will keep those "Hides" fresh and Supple for Years with only a Bi-Annual Treatment.]
2.Dump a Whole 8oz Container of Startron in the Tank Before you "Top it Off"
for Storage.
('Will Keep the "Fungi" from INFESTING/GROWING in you Tank.)
3.Clean and then Treat ALL the Rubber Goods on the Chassis with 303 Aerospace,before you "Put It Away".
[Those Door ,Trunk,Engine Seals are Expensive! Don't EVEN LOOK at the COST
of the Rubber Covers on the Outside Rear View Mirrors!!! 'Just wipe them with
303 EVERY time you walk by!]
4.Open the Hood 45 Degrees and leave it open to discourage "Wire Consuming
Pests" over the winter.['Funny how they like their Privacy at Mealtime.]

Not flipper. I got it from a mechanic I know. He lives year round in the seasonal town that the car lived in. Only reason I bought it "from" him is that the owner had left for the year.

It really is that low on miles. I'll take some external pics later. It wasn't all that clean on the outside. I'm sure it will shine up like new in the spring. I'm gonna drive it a month and get some fuel thru it.
