I noticed a leak around bottom oil pan recently and small and may just need a slight tightening before attempting to replace the seal. And a small 1 inch cut on vinyl top on passenger side. It's not noticeable and covered from the inside with Gorilla Tape. It never bothered me cause it s small and sealed. Vinyl Tops are cheap at $300ish and easy to replace. Paint is very shinny and professionally done with the added sports scope on the hood. no body fill, no rust. Car is stunning and get lots of thumbs ups always from all ages. Kids love it with a "What is that? or so Cool" comment. Adults really admire it giving them flash back memories and are astonished when they hear and see its a V8.
