Let me look under the hood later. Has normal stuff, except for the BBS whl option.
New tires and wheels are worth about $2K-2.5K alone. Besides new top and very nice leather inside.

No accidents / damage
Has spin on filter adapter.

Not IMS, Timing Chain Collapse
No metal in oil, very clean, cut oil filter, nothing on magnet. No oil leak. Noise is like dragging a chain in a bucket. Description of chain failure and
Hall-Effort 1.112 Sensor 1 displayed with Matco Tools Maximus 2.0 No other codes, however engine has not ran since chain or tensioner broke.
Probably require engine removal and or other items, maybe get lucky and be not too much. Sale includes new Napa filter 1042...!
