finish in it's factory code 922- ember red. The body is awesome.

original. The black convertible top still looks new, the plastic

really nice and are on black painted rims with new looking radial
tires. In the door jambs is real nice. Has smooth, clean paint, the
latches and screws are cleaned up, weatherstripping and sill plates

the pulleys, brackets, belts, wiring looks right. Fan shroud and
