Vehicle Detail

I am listing this car for a friend of mine. He bought it from the local Ford dealer 6 months ago that was traded in on a new vehicle. He has no history on the car, but here is what we do know about it. It runs and drives very well. I just followed the owner on a 45 mile trip. The car drives straight, and does not smoke. It does have a slight oil leak. It has new tires, new brakes, new battery, starts every time, and is a joy to drive. The paint is an older enamel job, and has lots of orange peel. The body exterior is showing no rust, and since the paint job is probably 10 years old or older, I am assuming the it would be showing if rust had been repaired with bondo by now. The rockers appear to have been replaced, the floors appear original and passenger side has some rust perforation, several spots about the size of a dime. The area directly in front of right rear tire has a rust hole (see photo). The top frame is there behind seats, but no convertible top or side curtains. Spare is there. It appears to have had some repair work done on rear floor behind rear body panel, (metal was not straightened very well). The gauges do not work, but lights and turn signals, work fine. If you have any questions, please email John the owner at jwmfrick@aol.com. Thanks and good luck.
