MOST PEOPLE ARE GOING TO ASK: IF THE FENDER PINCH WELDS AND THE LITTLE TICK MARKS NEXT TO THE HEADLIGHT RIMS STILL EXIST. THE ANSWER IS YES. HOWEVER, THE UNINFORMED BODY MAN PREVIOUSLY PAINTED THE CAR HAS SLEEKED THEM UP. YOU CAN RUN YOUR FINGERS BETWEEN THE INNER FENDERS AND BACK LIP OF THE FENDERS AND FEEL EVERYONE OF THE PINCH WELDS. ALSO, IF YOU TAKE THE HEADLIGHT BUCKETS OUT, YOU CAN FEEL THE SMALL TICK MARKS. THE ORIGINAL FLOOR PANS ( INCLUDING THE AREA OF THE PEDAL BOX) ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION WITH THE ORIGINAL FACTORY COATING. THE ROCKER PANELS ARE SOLID. WHEN WE GOT THE CAR, THEY WERE PAINTED A PERFECT WHITE COLOR TO MATCH THE CAR (NOT WRINKLE FINISH OR GRAVEL GUARD) MEANING NO HOLES OR PATCHES TO BE HIDDEN.

THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS GREAT IN ALL GEARS AND THE CLUTCH IS STRONG. THE SHIFT BUSHING WERE RECENTLY REPLACED. THE BRAKES AND SUSPENSION FUNCTION PROPERLY.
