Car looks great in the pictures. If the car is still available can you describe the condition of the undercarriage in particular the condition of the fuel and brake lines? Thank you

Car is still available. The brake and fuel lines are original. They appear to be in good condition. Fuel filter has been changed several times over the years. The car was garge kept for over 17 years. I can send you two under body photos if you provide an email address.

Re: 1900 red/tan reatta by original owner

The AC worked fine for two years after the conversion. I have never had the brake leak estimated for repair. It has not been that big an issue to add fluid occaisonally.
