After a professional orbital polish by our workshop, we found a small blemish under the paintwork on the front left wing and a few small cracks on the rear left valance. The 'Black' coloured PVC soft top is in excellent condition, perfectly taut and showing no discolouration despite a perfectible seal. The PVC mica in the rear window is in perfect condition. The chrome bumpers are perfectly aligned. We did find a few traces of oxidation on the front and rear bumpers, as well as a small ding on the right-hand rear bumper. The chrome trim and accessories are complete and in good condition. The chrome headlamp surrounds show a patina of use and slight oxidation. The tinted "Green" windscreen is also in good condition. The 4 original 15" steel wheels are in very good condition, with no signs of impact, deformation or oxidation. The original stainless steel wheel trims are also in excellent condition. The 4 tyres show 30% wear. The tyres are fitted with white sidewalls. This model does not have a spare wheel. Among the interesting "Body / Exterior" equipment and options present on this model, we noted: the tinted "Green" coloured windscreen and the recent "Black" coloured PVC soft top, as well as the 4 tyres with white sidewalls. Interior: The interior has retained its original configuration and is in very good condition. The "Red" leatherette upholstery and matching door mounts are in good condition. We did note a few misalignments on the door jambs. There are no cracks or breaks in the driver's cap. There are a few scratches on the CORVETTE motif on the passenger glovebox. The original on-board instrumentation and clock are fully functional. However, the dashboard lighting is no longer functional. The original bakelite steering wheel and gearstick lever show the patina of use. There are a few paint chips on the steering column shell. The original WONDERBAR radio is no longer functional but has been retained for aesthetic reasons. The stainless steel door sills are in good condition. The red carpets are also in excellent condition. Among the interesting "interior" options and equipment fitted to this example are the original clock and the period WONDERBAR radio. Chassis: On deck, the body and chassis are sound, with no visible damage or structural corrosion. The fundamentals: ladder frame, rocker panels, floorboards, wing roots and wheel arches are in good condition. Reservation: as a matter of principle, we cannot guarantee these elements beyond their visual and functional good condition, which was validated during the road test and when the vehicle was put on deck. During the dynamic test, we noted no abnormal parasitic noise from the body or running gear (ball joints, silent blocks, etc.). The brakes are in line, with plenty of bite and endurance...
