It has its original 1/4 panels. Bottom of doors are clean, both fenders sound like metal when you tap on them. The Montero red paint... is polished like glass. The jambs are detailed- latches, hardware are cleaned, new weatherstrips and sill plates. I'm looking at the hood right now and it has a mirror reflection of the ceiling. The stance is tough.

It is clean, not abused, practically new looking. New cushions in the seats, upholstery looks new. The door panels, visors, dash pad look new. The whole instrument area is excellent. The chrome around the gauges, radio, heater controls, horn button all sparkle. It has a correct 4 speed console with original vacuum gauge. It has the rally gauge cluster and tachometer in the dash and below the dash it also has newer, probably more reliable gauges. The interior lights work. Has original seat belts front and back. Any interior metal is painted real nice. Carpet is like new, has embroidered floormats. ENGINE COMPARTMENT: When you have a GTO everyone asks- does it have a tri power under the hood? You can open this one and say yes! The compartment is very clean and proper looking. The engine has the correct Aqua paint, proper tri-power carbs with chrome air cleaners. Correct valve covers have been rechromed. All of the finishes are smooth- the firewall, inner fenders, core support, bottom of the hood. Hinges and latches are detailed. It also has power steering and power brakes. There are a set of headers on the motor. There's an aluminum radiator with electric fan to keep it cool.

Bottom of the trunk lid and the jamb are painted very nicely. Has the jacking instructions decal and new weather strip. Original hubcaps are included. UNDERSIDE: Exceptionally clean.
