What the photos show
- Red paint is glossy and even on every panel in the studio photos, with doors, hood and twin-grille rear deck sitting straight — no paint or body budget from these photos.
- Chrome bumpers, overriders, rocker trim and steel wheels are bright with no visible pitting or curb damage in the close rear view — no chrome budget from these photos.
- Black leather seats and door panels look smooth and unworn in the interior photo, and the wood-rim wheel presents cleanly — no retrim budget from these photos.
- Dash close-up shows honest patina the wide shots hide: a paint chip on the glovebox plate, a rusty screw and surface corrosion on the under-dash metal — budget for small cosmetic detailing, not a dash restoration from these photos.
- Gear lever, boot and surrounding carpet show light wear and dust consistent with a driven car in the close-up — budget a thorough interior detail, not repairs from these photos.
- Glass all round looks clear with no visible cracks or delamination in the studio views — no glass budget from these photos.
Money: no paint, chrome or trim money in these photos — the only photo-evident spend is small dash-area detailing, and the real budget question is the four-cam engine, which no photo can answer.
