I just got back from driving this car. The trans does not shift correctly. The sunroof does not work. Car has vacuum issues. The pass window does not operate properly and will jam going down. The driver's side window is not aligned correctly. Only one rear 1/4 window worked. The car was hit on the driver's rear 1/4 and not fixed correctly. It has tons of bondo and it is cracking through the paint. There is some rust in the spare tire. The jack points looked good. The floorboards were all wet. The interior is ok and seats were nice but it did have a dash cover on it. The instrument cluster was changed for one that does not have a tach but instead a clock. The a/c does not work. It started right up and idled good with the oil cap sitting place not being blown off. The car has had a total repaint and paint is on all window seals and some of the chrome is falling off. The paint where it is not cracked on the rear 1/4 looks good. Just a heads up so you know what you may be getting into. My best guess is it's only worth $2500 tops.
