The car has never seen any rain or foul weather. You can still see the factory chalk marks underneath on the chassis.
You need to take this car out and drive it. 200 miles is way to low. If I were buying a collectible car and it was 30 years old with 3K miles on it I would be very suspicious and stay away from that purchase. Too low of mileage means lots of mechanical problems in the future. This car needs to get out of the garage and stretch. It needs fresh air blowing through it! It needs to do 80 MPH on the highway once in a while. Keeping a car with that low mileage does more harm than good.

My Crossfire was a daily driver but it sits in the garage more now. I have to make it a point to drive it about 50 miles once a week or every 2 weeks. If I don't give it a good run every 2 weeks I feel really bad for the car.
