Dick;
It looks like you're right about the paint job, it probably has been in an
accident. I don't know about the 63' fans but $13,000 dollars is too much
for a car that is two tone in a vertical direction. That being said the
interior looks nice but these people are being less then honest if they
claim that it only has 819 miles, more like 100,819. If they can't be
straight with that what else are they covering up? You can make a car look
real good by fibreglassing over the rust holes.
Best Regards
