Here are a couple more more photos. I really like it.



The rims need repainting, but my local dealer does that for $50/rim, so that's no biggie.

Interior looks good, except for the cracked center console wood trim. I know William Rau refinishes those for $350 or so. It has become impossible to find good (non-cracked) ones on eBay lately. Needs a new radio antenna, which is $100 or so. All in all, not bad!

From what I see in the photos, for <$1k it would be immaculate. However, that is assuming everything mechanical is 100% which is still a big assumption.
