CAR DESCRIPTION FROM SELLER
HI THIS IS A 1980 FORD MODEL A ROADSTER SHAY. THIS CAR IS A VERY LOW MILAGE CAR AND I STRONGLY BELIEVE IT A TRUE 10,800 MILE CAR. THE SHORT STORY IS; I PURCHASES THIS CAR FROM A GUY WHO OWNS 3 DUNKIN DONUTS IN NORTHERN NEW JERSEY. HE PURCHASED THIS CAR ON 4-14-2000. HE HAS OWNED THIS CAR FOR OVER 20 YEARS. WHEN HE PURCHASED THIS CAR IT HAD 10500 MILES ON IT( I HAVE A COPY OF HIS TITLE TO PROVE IT). HE PURCHASED IT TO BRING OUT ON AN OCCASIONAL PROMOTION SURROUNDING HIS STORES. IN THE INBETWEEN TIMES THE CAR WAS STORED IN HIS CLIMATE CONTROLLED WAREHOUSE ALONG WITH ALL HIS PERISHABLE ITEMS. I KNOW; AS I WAS THERE. ANY ONE THAT IS FAMILAR WITH THE SHAY, WOULD BE AWARE THAT THE SHAY IS A RELIABLE, PRACTICAL, SAFE AND FUN CAR TO OWN. THE AUTHENTIC ANTIQUE CARS ARE UNRELIABLE AND UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THESE CARS WERE PRODUCED IN 1980 BY THE ANTIQUE MOTOR CAR COMPANY/SHAY CORPORATION. THEY WERE SOLD NEW THRU THE FORD MOTOR COMPANY AT ITS DEALERSHIPS. THE CAR WAS MANUFACTURED WITH HYDRAULIC BRAKES, MANUAL STEERING, SEAT BELTS, HEAT PROVIDED IN THE MAIN COMPARTMENT, RUMBLE SEAT COMPARTMENT AND CONVERTABLE TOP. THIS CAR RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 2.3 FOUR CYLINDER ENGINE AND IT RUNS GREAT. THERE IS NO HESITATION, NO SMOKE, NO NOISES AND NO LEAKS. ITS REALLY PEPPY AND RUNS FANTASTIC. IT ALSO RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL 4 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THERE ARE NO ISSUES WITH IT EITHER. YOU SHIFT THRU THE GEARS WITH EASE. THERE ARE ALSO NO NOISES OR LEAKS. I DROVE THIS CAR HOME OVER 80 MILES THE DAY I BOUGHT IT. I WAS AMAZED THAT I CRUISED ON THE HIGHWAY AT OVER 70 MILES AN HOUR AND WAS NOTHING SHORT OF IMPRESSED. THE BRAKES WERE HIGH AND QUITE EFFECTIVE. INTERESTING THING IS THAT AS FAR AS THE PREVIOUS OWNER KNEW THE BRAKES WERE ORIGINAL. THE CAR IS VERY TIGHT AND THERE ARE NO SUSPENSION NOISES AT ALL. ALL THE FLUIDS HAVE BEEN UPDATED AND ARE FRESH. ITS A BLAST TO DRIVE AND A REAL ATTENTION GETTER, ESPECIALLY WHEN PEOPLE ARE IN THE RUMBLE SEAT. THE EXTERIOR IS NEAR FLAWLESS. I HAVE NEVER SEEN A SHAY IN THIS CONDITION. THE BODY PANELS ARE STRAIGHT AND THERE ARE NO DENTS OR DINGS. THE PAINT IS ORIGINAL AND NEAR PERFECT.THE BODY ALTHOUGH, FIBERGLASS IS ALSO PERFECT, AS THERE ARE NO SPIDER CRACKS OR DENTS EITHER. THE DOORS OPEN AND CLOSE WITH EASE. THE RUMBLE SEAT COMPARTMENT LINES UP PERFECT AND ALSO OPENS AND CLOSES WITH EASE. THE HOODS ON THESE CARS USUALLY HAVE SIGNS OF SOME RUST AND THIS ONE DOES NOT. THE HOOD USUALLY OVERTIME DOES NOT LINE UP; AND THIS ONE LINES UP PERFECT. ALL THE HINGES LOOK TO BE ORIGINAL AND ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE SMALL AMOUNT OF CHROME ON THE CAR IS BRILLIANT AND THERE IS NO PITTING. THE BUMPERS ARE CHROME AND ARE ALSO IN PERFECT CONDITION. OVERALL YOU CAN SEE THIS CAR HAS HAD LIMITTED USE AND STORED PROPERLY INBETWEEN USE. THE CAR COMES WITH THE TRUNK ON THE BACK. ITS IN GOOD SHAPE. ITS STILL STURDY AND OVERALL IN GOOD SHAPE. A COUPLE OF THE STAPS ARE BROKEN AS THE LEATHER DRYS OUT OVER TIME. WHEN YOU OPEN THE BOX THE INSIDE DOES NOT HAVE ANY WATER STAINS AND REALLY LOOKS GOOD FOR ITS AGE. IT ALSO HAS ITS ORIGINAL CAR COVER. THE INTERIOR IS ORIGINAL AND EXCELLENT. THE DRIVERS SEAT IS NOT TORN. THERE IS ONE SMALL AREA WHERE THE STICHING IS SEPERATING ABOUT AN INCH LONG. OTHER THAN THAT IT IS STILL SOFT AND THE PADDING IS STILL FULL. THE CARPET IS AS NEW THERE ARE NO STAINS AND NO WEAR MARKS. THE DASH AND DASH PAD ARE AS NEW AS WELL. THERE IS ALSO NO CRACKS OR DISCOLORIZATION. ALL THE SIDE PANELS (DOOR, KICK,AND REAR ) ARE ALL THERE AND DO NOT SHOW ANY WEAR. THE ONE LARGE BEZEL WHERE THE SPEDO IS SHOWS SOME PITTING AND I WOULD REPLACE IF I WERE KEEPING THE CAR LONGER. THE RUMBLE SEAT AREA IS IN AS NICE A SHAPE AS THE FRONT COMPARTMENT. THE REAR SEAT IS SOFT AND FULL. THERE ARE NO TEARS AND LOOKS NEW. THE CARPET IF PERFECT. AGAIN ALL THE SIDE PANELS BACK THERE SHOW NO WEAR AT ALL. ALL THE LITES WORK AS THEY SHOULD. ALL THE GAGES ALSO WORK PERFECT. THE CAR CAME WITH A AM/FM RADIO MOUNTED UNDER THE DASH ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND IT PLAYS GREAT. THE AOOGHA HORN WORKS AND IT LOUD. THE WIPERS WORK WELL. THE HEAT BLOWS HOT. THE CONVERTABLE TOP LOOKS BRAND NEW, EVEN THOUGH ITS 40 YEARS OLD. I ASSUME BECAUSE OF ITS LIMITED USE, ITS HELD UP LIKE THAT. BUT THE FUNNY THING IS THE REAR WINDOW IS BETTER THAN ONE I REPLACED A COUPLE YEARS AGO ON A SHAY I HAD BEFORE. THE CAR COMES WITH THE ORIGINAL SIDE WINDOWS WHICH ARE SO NICE I DONT BELIEVE THEY WERE EVER ON THE CAR. THEY ARE AS NICE AS THE TOP. THEY FIT PERFECT AS THERE DOES NOT SEEM TO BE ANY SHRINKING. THE CAR RETAINS ITS ORIGINAL WING WINDOWS AND THEY ARE EXCELLENT. THE ETCHING IS STILL CLEAR. NOW THE FUNNY PART, THE PARADE BOOT IS STILL IN THE TRUNK AND STILL IN ITS ORIGINAL SEALED BAG. ITS OBVIOUSLY PERFECT. THE TIRES AND WHEELS ARE GREAT. THE WHEELS DO NOT SHOW A DROP OF ROAD RASH. THERE IS NOT A DROP OF PITTING OR CHIPPING ON THE WHEELS. THEY LOOK GREAT. THE TIRE TREAD IS PROBABLY 90 PERCENT. THERE IS NO CRACKING AT ALL AND THE WHITE WALLS ARE PERFECT. I DONT KNOW IF THEY ARE ORIGINAL BUT THEY ARE ALLSTATE 4PLY 18INCH. I NEVER ASKED IF THEY WERE EVER REPLACED. OVERALL THIS CAR IS IN EXCEPTIONAL CONDITION. IT RUNS AND DRIVES PHENOMENAL. THE BODY AND FINISHES ARE STRAIGHT AS AN ARROW. YOU CAN SEE THIS CAR WAS REALLY LOVED AND CARED FOR. REMEMBER THIS IS A LOW MILAGE ROADSTER WITH ONLY 10,893 MILES. PLEASE BID TO WIN.
