In general this would be a /6 like I want it: MY'70, signal orange, nice overall condition. But as a matter of fact, I'm not good in finding the "not so good areas" of a car. The guy who offered it to me sent me a couple of photos.
I have all of them in high res, but I don't want to waste too much space, therefore I shrinked them. So, if you need a detail in full size, just tell me ... Attached image(s)

In case you are still going to check the car out, I think I saw 930 lower valve covers on the engine. These are a nice upgrade, but if they haven't been machined down some you can't remove them with the engine in the car... this means the engine has to come out for valve adjustments.
