***UPDATE** Two things we noticed today while taking photographs. The seat controls don't appear to work. We couldn't get the A/C to turn on today. Not sure if it's a fuse or something else.
We've received requests for the work performed in 2015: from the receipt we have for mechanical repairs:
"Installed R.F. Hub Cap. Was missing. Still needs to be painted to match.
Repaired front suspension. Replaced left lower ball joint and both strut rod bushings. This repaired most of the noise. Any remaining noise is worn shock/struts. Ok for now.
Replaced hydraulic hoses. Bled system. This took time and we had to replace them one at a time. Note: the car still has a few old hoses, but at this time they are not failing.
Tightened steering column CVR. Found column loose. Tightened screws that hold cover. This also repaired the shifter indicator unit.
Replaced carb floats. Found that the right side carburetor would start to leak fuel from overflow hose. We checked the float and found it filling gas, causing it to be heavy. We placed both of them.
Rebuilt pressure switches. Found that the car's hydraulic system has two pressure switches and they were worn causing the dash light to come on. We rebuilt the switches and not the lights. Work like they should."
*** Mechanical, paint, leather, trim work, and tires from 2015-2016: $ 28,495.49. (Have all receipts). ***
