What the photos show
- dark blue paint is deep gloss and the chrome is bright, topside it presents like a cherished car
- black leather seats and door cards look excellent and the dash wood is glossy, no interior money needed
- the headliner is starting to sag at the rear, budget a headliner repair
- engine bay is complete but shows its age, with a stained coolant reservoir and tired-looking hoses, budget a hose and service refresh
- rear bumper rubber is cracked and split at the corner, and 6.9 trim pieces are not cheap
- the lift shots give the game away: the rear valance panel beside the muffler is rusted through with holes under that glossy paint, that's real rust repair and paint, the big bill on this car
- the spare well still holds its original-style Michelin XWX spare, a nice originality point
Money: no price is published; the top of the car says top money and the rusted-through rear valance says otherwise, so price it with a proper rust repair deducted.
