What the photos show
- Red paint is glossy and even all around, no paintwork needed on what the photos show
- Chrome bumpers, grille and painted hubcaps are bright and clean, no rechroming money here
- Parchment seats look smooth and unmarked from above, no reupholstery bill visible
- Dash face and gauges look clean, but a close shot through the windshield shows fine cracking on the dash top pad, so allow for a dash pad repair
- Door card is clean parchment with a tidy pocket, no door trim money needed
- The car is only shown top-down in the sample, can't judge the soft top or hardtop, so set nothing aside for them until seen
- Engine bay is not shown in the sampled photos, can't judge it or price any engine work from these
- Underside on the lift is clean black metal with a newer-looking exhaust, no rust repair money underneath
- A factory data card is photographed with the car, paperwork that supports value at no cost
Money: No sale price is listed, but the paint, chrome, interior and clean underside support a strong sold result — the cracked dash pad is the one small spend the photos reveal.
