Summary
Powered by a 4.5-liter M117 V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission, this long-wheelbase sedan features recent mechanical service including a rebuilt rear differential and suspension component replacements. The car shows 84k miles and includes an R134a-converted air conditioning system, though the paint exhibits fading and the headliner is sagging.
