It towed a horse float around mostly apparently. Optioned the auto and 308 for that I guess. Doubt it ever saw a surfboard.
It’s value is in its originality, but it’s a pretty plain car otherwise. I can’t understand why they didn’t clean the engine bay up at least. You could make the whole car look more desirable with a decent polish and detail without effecting it’s originally.
No rust though which would be extremely rare today. At least you know if you keep it away from the coast and in a shed it will last.
