Car has "Cigar Lighter" delete but ashtrays! Seat upholstery is under large silver vinyl that I have not removed since buying the car. Original blue rear carpet is in place. Shiny areas in the photos of the front floorboards are the flash reflection from the black coating/paint on the floor. I have not had this car on the freeway, only driven around the neighborhood - many "Victory Laps" to verify that the car systems work as I was proceeding through the car restoration. Still a few things to sort out. Comes with a replacement rust free right front fender complete to replace the existing one that has a wrinkle in it and a complete rust free left read panel to replace the existing one that has a dent in the left rear wheel arch front area from a long ago tire tread separation(?). I was working to make everything original. This car is a "bump the ignition key" starting car. I am retiring @ 65 and need to reduce my number of cars for moving out of state. This car was last registered in 1979(!) with California Black Plates by the original owner and sat in a garage out of harms way. Bought from an estate sale and originally was going to keep this one to drive in retirement but changed my mind.
