It has all the options offered in 1978. Every thing works with two exceptions: The Cruise Control has a mind of its own and works sometimes and not at other times. The A/C does not blow cold air. When I put this car away in the storage garage about 8 month ago the A/C was working fine, but when I took it out now it is not cold, therefore I assume it has a slow leak and has lost the freon and needs to be recharged and leak tested. This car has not been restored, it has been repainted at some time in the past (before I purchased it a few years back). The interior is original as is the chrome and stainless trim. The interior is in great shape, with only a little fading of the beige on the center of the front seat. No cracks or tears in the leather. It has aftermarket carpeted floor mats front and back in dark brown to coordinate with the two tone interior. One other flaw on the interior is the dash pad, it has some cracking in the center of the upper pad. I have kept it covered with a dash pad cover but it cracked regardless. The exterior is as good as it gets for a 8 to 10 year old paint job. It was repainted with a 2 stage system ie: color coat/clear coat which is not like the original single stage. Fender and bumper extensions are in good condition with only one small crack. The engine runs smooth and powerful and the tranny shifts smooth. The car was smog tested 3 weeks ago and passed with no problems. Tires are near new semi-wide white walls with lots of tread left on them.
