“Salem”
Salem is still a mostly original car. The seats have been redone with black inserts in the tan trim. It has been banged around a little and has a few rocker dents. It has been repainted at least three times with three slightly different tints of green. Part of it was covered with a clear-coat that shrank and cracked.
The car runs very well for a desmogged Ca car. The last long road trip resulted in fuel mileage just over 40 MPG. He is not a daily driver but is driven now and then year around when weather allows. The top is never up so it is limited in inclement weather. I love the car; he is the big brother of 5 siblings that are in the shop.
