Well maintained original owner car until he sold it in 2023. The original owner installed a rear spoiler and painted the hood and hood scoop in matte black. The holes from trunk spoiler remain and sealed with rubber plugs. Car retains all of the original XR7-G components installed by Shelby American as documented in the attached video. Currently located in Colorado.
Car drives well with a fairly tight suspension and steering, and is fairly quiet with minimal noise from the suspension. Suspension appears original with possible exception of the upper ball joints. Vinyl top is in excellent condition and doesn’t exhibit any signs of rust. Car has a few passenger side dents and small chip/scratch touch ups. Undercarriage has surface rust on components, but does not exhibit any rust out / soft spots in the typical spots (under seats, torque boxes, etc.). Lights (turn signals, brake lights, headlight doors, etc.) function properly. Interior is in excellent condition with some wear on front seats and console. An Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator has been installed per recommendation of carb restoral company, but can be replaced with the included original “pump to carb” line. Still has the original exhaust / mufflers.
