it is for sale for some months already, I saw it advertised before, I remember because the floormats are quite unique :-)

Newbie question but what are the pair of braided lines plumbed into the air filter housings for?

In pic # 6 the 2 hoses in upper right of the photo are the standard plumbing for the charcoal filter . the other hoses look cool and as mentioned prolly for crankcase breather.
In photo 5 the PCV is plumbed to the other air cleaner and the other hose is the other crankcase breather

Question(s) to ask ...
If the car has been in the family for 30 years and this family is 2nd owner ... why is the CA license plate so "current" ? If there were personal plates and they were turned in and regular plates issued that OR that it has a much deeper history is the only reason the plates would be so "new" that number is from 2000 to 20010 era

When the rebuild was done and carbs added . was a "Carb cam" installed?

Looks like spare is a full size rim / tire as the trunk floor isn't sitting flat . (not bad or anything but just a point of note)

I think the air dam and wing look "OK " (your preference ... but the rear trunk would have been drilled)
Black mirrors and Monza exhaust are also add ons / modifications.

BIG bonus if your name is "Sandy" lol

Just do a good job checking for rust ... in the hell hole and under the rockers. Ask if you can remove the bottom bolts on the rockers and just look .
