Specifications
Original car in good condition with few owners!
The car was, like most, sold new in the USA where it reportedly had only three owners. The last owner in the USA owned it for nearly 20 years and performed significant maintenance.
The current owner in Sweden searched for a long time for a truly good example and finally found this car, which was imported to Sweden in April 2021 with an odometer reading of 48,300 km.
The car was produced in October 1981 and first registered in November the same year.

Condition Assessment
Each vehicle is unique and is described as thoroughly as possible in both text and images. There is therefore no general grading scale; instead, each example is assessed individually and it is up to the buyer to form their own opinion about the condition.
Purchase Information
No purchases of the cars will be completed on Care of Carl's website. All transactions take place via Johns Garage. Therefore, we refer you to JohnsGarage.se for any questions regarding the item or the purchase itself, and any potential purchase is subject to Johns Garage's terms and conditions.
Available Vehicles
The cars shown are a handpicked selection that we believe are relevant for our customers. As long as the vehicles are displayed on our website, they are available through Johns Garage, with the exception of any transactions that may have taken place before we have had the opportunity to update our information.
