Award-Winning Survivor

• Interior: Clean, original condition with new headliner and covered visors. Seats are excellent, dash and console show well with only a small blemish (see photos).
• Exterior: Chrome and trim are in excellent shape and complete. Minor surface rust near T-Top area (typical for the era) and paint separation at pinch welds due to original lacquer paint over seam sealer — a known factory issue.
