Beautifully restored car.
Paint stripped to bare metal, redone in correct Bronze Mist Metallic. New Vinyl top, interior totally redone, using correct materials, leather inserts in the seats. All chrome on the car redone, bumpers, interior and exterior trim. Drivetrain not cosmetically restored, but all clean and neat. Transmission overhauled,
engine runs great. Many suspension, brake and steering parts replaced. A/C updated to 134a and blows nice and cold. All power accessories work, including windows, driver's seat, antenna, AM radio had FM added, but you can't see it, front and rear speakers.
Extra gauges added at lower left of dash for water temp and oil pressure (seemed like a good idea on a 53 year old car), but all dash lights and gauges work. Tilt wheel, correct factory floor mats and trunk mat, dealer accessory tissue dispenser and fuel door trim. Trunk redone using correct fabric. Windshield replaced, so no pits. Underside is original, some surface rust as expected, but no issues. Dual exhaust all in great shape.
Car starts right up and drives great, transmission shifts are perfect, runs at 180 degrees, unless it is really hot out, then maybe 190-200. A few scratches to the paint since it was done, but overall car is magnificent.
I doubt there is a better one, so if you want beautiful Electra coupe that needs nothing except to be driven, this is the car.
