This car needs a PPI. The front passenger side has been hit and fixed poorly. I also believe I see evidence of poor body work on the drivers rear. No way this is a 30k mile car. Before you buy have someone look this one over close.

What's the VIN number? I'm curious if it's in the Member's VIN section.

Format: 47429XXXXX EDIT: 4742915385

Locations: (1) embossed plate viewable through windshield, low on driver's side "A" pillar, (2) sticker in driver's side door jamb, just below striker, (3) stamped plate on top of passenger side fender well, in front trunk, near hood spring attachment, (4) aluminum plate on the inside passenger side front trunk, below headlight bucket, (5) valid state vehicle ownership/registration paperwork.

. . . added to VIN database, with a picture.

Looking through the punched holes in the sticker, it appears that the car was originally yellow (L13K or L13M?). Can you get the numbers (chassis/paint code) from the silver/black square data plate on the driver's side door jamb, just above the bottom door hinge? Thanks!

Note: The chassis number on the data plate will be in a format similar to this: 0949549 (from VIN 4742915355)
