I think this car could be as original as I've seen... original paint, everything. very nice.

I did this PPI last week for a potential buyer, and I waited to share until the car had sold.

let me know what you guys think...

it had a little battery tray surface rust, but other then that, it looked as good as a car could possibly look for being in storage since 1987...

oh, the original steel wheels were with the car, just not on. still had the original tires (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

but yea, it needs a factory muffler, too.

the needs I noted were:
clutch kit(I'm assuming)... I know the clutch and flywheel could rust together.
fuel lines in tunnel
fuel tank clean and lining
all rubber fuel lines replaced
rubber brake lines,
rebuilt calipers
new rotors(or turned at the least)

the seals and rubber bumper tops were nice, none seemed dried and cracked
I didn't see anything else that was glaring. I'm sure the engine will need a big cleaning/flush.

but really.... I think what's needed would be well worth it for such a nice find...
