I take it from your thread posting that you know more about this car than the Craig's posting divulged. Do tell.........

I've got this on my "to call" list.

Well, we looked @ it looks pretty but there is lots of bondo & repair work done underneath presumably for rust. Interior looks nice but some incorrect things done there. Ran & drove great, of course new tires. Be a fun cruiser. GOLD pretty, pretty. Nice guys to visit with

I assume that the Bondo and body work wasn't worth the asking price? Are the floors rusted through? Trunk looks like it was POR 15'd to inhibit any further rust. Recent paint and interior? I can't make out the errors in the interior, can you please educate me?

Thanks

I'll call the seller too.

As for the interior, it appears to have the Sport interior option based on the door panels having three horizontal strips of mylar. The colors of the door panels don't seem to match the rest of the interior, and the middle sections of the seats should have ribbed vinyl instead of smooth vinyl. That's what I could pick up from the two photos provided in the ad.

Cool. Thanks Don. Learned something new today. Unfortunately I had to lose something in the process.

Painted a few years ago still great luster not showroom paint but good enough. Carpet wasn't in Coronets, I think the glove box color was wrong Wher is Neil when I really need Him RIP. The INSIDE of the wheel lips are poorly smeared bondo. Yes, he'll take a lot less but if it were a perfect car as sometimes we get to drool on here it wouldn't be 21 either!!
