Larry, you have got to wear goggles or some protective eye wear when cleaning with your power washer and steamer, especially after you have scrubbed the extremely dirty, nasty, and infested with poop surfaces.

I think the upholstery was hounds tooth inlay. Absolute Italian style from design, twin overhead 1800 cc 4 cylinder internal combustion motor and that cackle in the exhaust. The doors were super heavy to open and close, it was a joy to own. Greetings from New Zealand

That’s exactly what I was thinking too. While he got it pretty clean looking, just about every single thing on that car would need to be replaced. I restored my 1980 Fiat 2000 and all that stuff he did like cleaning the top and whatnot really meant nothing as you know that would all be dry rotted and worthless. Not to mention all the underside rust. Unless that owner plans on completely swapping out the entire suspension, brake system, all hoses, getting the heater core swapped, and completely pulling the engine to get new timing belt and freeze plugs, not to mention replacing the rocket panels and just about every body panel, it’s just a really nice junk yard car that isn’t even really worth parting out except the dash. All clean as it sits, it’s a thousand dollar car if that with what it would need to be a daily driver.

You definitely need to add/secure a winch on the front inside wall of that trailer. Will save a lot of headaches for future vehicles. Then you could have backed the trailer to the garage, open trailer, hooked vehicle up to winch, and winched it completely inside the enclosed trailer. Phenomenal job by the way. His look was almost like him thinking you pranked him by showing a different car.

I love these cars, owned a 1982 once, have driven several, and almost bought another one, but they ALL have the same flaw. I was waiting to see it throughout the entire video, and then right around 26:50....top down shot and YEP, there it is. Broken frame on the driver's seat back on the right side, puts a bit of a twist in the seat back. I even had this fixed on mine, welded the frame, and it happened again. What happens to them is they break when the driver reaches back behind them to grab the convertible top handle to raise it back up, and it puts too much stress on the seat frame. It's such a shame, because they are really cool cars otherwise.
