What the photos show
- Champagne paint looks glossy and even, no dents or rust bubbles showing on the body, so no paint bill in sight.
- Chrome grille and bumpers look bright, the front bumper rubber shows light scuffing in the close view, so only a minor tidy-up cost there.
- Burgundy seats look clean and well-shaped with no tears visible, no need to reupholster, and the burgundy door cards and rear deck match.
- Dash top looks smooth and uncracked in the close view, no dash repair bill showing.
- Brown soft top looks taut, but its rear windows look cloudy, so budget for a window or top refresh.
- Engine bay is only shown in one tight detail, the brake booster area is grimy with a yellowed reservoir, so the full bay cannot be judged and a wider look is worth money.
- Underside is only shown at the front corner, where the steering linkage looks rusty, so budget for steering and suspension work and get the car on a lift.
- Alloy wheels with gold accents look clean and tires show tread, no immediate replacement cost, and the last sampled photos are the car under a cover and a VIN printout, not condition views.
Money: At $22,361 the body and burgundy interior look the money, but the rusty steering linkage, cloudy top windows and unseen full engine bay mean hold back cash for sorting.
