The pictures of the car will show you what a great survivor it is and with it's history could be a veryhigh end restoration or drive as is as a survivor and enjoy it. Either way it is a great investment on a rare car. The drivers side front fender is also starting to show the holes for the fuel injection emblem that were once covered up back in 1974, even more evidence of this cars history. The paint has the common lacquer checking that happens over years such as this but also shows the originality of a 45 year old paint job. The drivers side door glass is cracked but is flat glass and not expensive. There is some delamination on some of the glass but again a very inexpensive fix. The chrome is in goodcondition. The ONLY spot that needs to be mentioned is about a 2 inch spot of the very bottom of the drivers side fender that has a very small crack from some surface rust only. The rest of the car is super solid and no rust to be noted as seen! (even on a lift!). This is a driver/survivor that can be driven and enjoyed, restored to a high end restoration with very little needing done orjust kept for aninvestment.
