-Both rear quarters have been replaced at some point before I owned it

-Interior is mostly original and in good shape for the age. No cigarette burns. The head rests do need recovered. (I do have the original steering wheel as well)

-As stated previously, I did install a new headliner, rear deck/package tray and arm rests as these were in need of replacement

As I said in the beginning, this car is not fully restored. Although it looks very good, it will need to be painted at some point as there are numerous cracks and some chips in the paint. The drivers side door could use new hinge pins. Also, the body has never been separated from the frame so the frame has not been restored. The rear cross section of the frame was replaced due to someone hooking a chain to this area at some time in the past and bending it.
