The Body:Originally in Ash Gold the car was resprayed once early in its life to white. It is as solid as could be! Other than the bottom corners of the front fenders the car is practically Rust Free. Floors are perfect, the bed just has some surface on it, and under where the Vinyl top was has some pitting. Around the back window is solid. Quarter panels and Tail Gate are Excellent! This will be an easy restoration. The Factory Exhaust hangers are still in place.
Interior:Is all original including carpet. Dash Cluster is in excellent shape, top dash pad has a crack. Seat is torn on the driver's side as pictured. Door Panels are real nice.
It Runs and Drives great, could be used daily if chosen. Please call if serious for additional details or questions. Would be Perfect candidate for a Concourse Restoration...
