General comments?
This was my Grandmothers car. She has owned it since 1980. It only had 22,000 miles on it when she bought it.
Was given to me for free when She sold her house and moved into an Assisted Living Home.
73,000 miles are original... has not passed 100,000 miles.
Very comfortable to ride in.
Main reasons for bad fuel pump is inactivity, as it sat for several years in my Grandmothers Garage when she quit driving.
Is last year for true Two Door Hardtop.
I plan to keep this car as long as I am around.
