The exterior paint, trim and mechanics are not in need of reconditioning. The interior would be in excellent condition. Some vehicles may be considered "matching numbers" vehicles.

    NADA Classic puts the car at $5820.00 Low Retail............Easy Formula or T/A Clone Car. Showing 84,000 Miles on Odometer. Unknown if the car has 184,000 because the odometer only has 5 digits and the 6th. digit is tenths of a mile, therefore I'm not selling the car as a 84,000 mile vehicle.
