GarageScout Take
Long-term Nevada ownership since 1968 and a documented 1998 283 rebuild with roughly 5,000 miles since give this C1 a clear ownership and mechanical record. Its white finish is uncommon among observed examples, while the displayed mileage sits above the middle for the generation.
Strengths
- Long-term ownership dating to 1968.
- Detailed 1998 engine rebuild with approximately 5,000 miles since the work.
- Muncie four-speed installation and rebuilt rear leaf springs are documented in the listing.
- Comes with an owner's manual, spare parts, car cover, and clean Nevada title.
Watch For
- The body was repaired and refinished in the early 1990s, with cracks, chips, and scratches noted around the exterior.
- The plexiglass rear window is cracked, and the driver-side front fender and areas near the taillights also have cracks.
- The five-digit odometer shows 73,000 miles, but total mileage is unknown.
- The Wonder Bar radio is weak, the horn is missing, and dried weatherstripping glue is visible inside the driver's door frame.
