GarageScout Take

Fifty-three years with one owner gives this Series V an unusually traceable life, including regular seasonal storage and no reported winter use. The repaint, aged weatherstripping and trim, missing soft-top clip, and assortment of small interior and exterior repairs keep the presentation tied to its long service history.

Strengths

  • 53-year ownership history, with the seller purchasing the car in 1973 from its original California period.
  • The Series V’s 1,725cc engine received a head-gasket replacement and refresh in 2011, followed by further fuel, cooling, clutch, and brake-system work.

Watch For

  • The seller notes a 2005 repaint, along with various paint chips, scratches, windshield scrapes, and a scratch on the rear bumper.
  • Weatherstripping needs replacement, the soft top is missing a clip, and the trunk lacks carpeting.
  • The glove box, inner door-panel backing, battery-cover hinges, and aging exterior badges need attention.
  • The car is offered on Ontario registration, so importation, registration, and applicable duties require verification in the buyer’s location.
