FOR THE AGE, THIS VEHICLE IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION. YOU WILL NOTE THAT THE LAST FOUR PHOTOS POSTED SHOW THE FEW FLAWS ON THE BODY WHICH WILL REQUIRE ATTENTION AT SOME POINT.

THE PAINT IS NOT ORIGINAL, HOWEVER, IT IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE AFOREMENTIONED. THE HOOD SHOWS A COUPLE OF PAINT BUBBLES ( approx.the size of a dime) WHICH HAVE BEEN THERE FOR SOME TIME, BUT HAVE NOT PRESENTED ANY PROBLEMS EVEN DURING THE WASHING OF THE VEHICLE.
