Exterior:
The body is fairly solid overall but does have some rust in the front floor pans that has been patched with sheet metal on top by a previous owner.
It has decent driver quality paint that has some imperfections here and there.
The front and rear bumpers were rechromed and are in good shape.
The windshield is new and the rest of the glass is in good shape and all of the windows roll up and down.
The grille is in decent shape but has some dings here and there.
All of the head lights, tail lights, brake lights and turn signals work as they should.
The windshield wipers work as well.
The steel wheels are in good shape, the hubcaps are decent with some dings here and there and the tires are new Firestone 6.70-15" wide white walls.
Interior:
All of the interior is in good shape.
The seat covers look nice and don't have any tears.
The door panels are nice with no tears.
The headliner is in good shape.
The carpet is new and in good shape.
All of the gauges work.
There is an electric fan wired to the "Blower" switch that works.
It has an aftermarket CD player that works and sounds good.
Drivetrain & Suspension:
The engine is the original 215 cubic inch inline 6 cylinder. It starts right up even when dead cold, has great oil pressure, and runs down the highway surprisingly well.
The 3 speed manual transmission shifts through the gears easily and smoothly.
The stock manual steering feels good and doesn't seem to have a lot of slack in it.
The manual drum brakes stop the car easily and do no pull to the left or right.
The car has been converted to 12 volt and has a new battery.
