Condition

The car has several noted cosmetic issues including discolored paint with swirls, missing trim, wear along the body sides, and a nonfunctional driver-side reverse light. The interior also shows wear with worn tan leather seating surfaces. Mechanically, the engine burns oil, oil seeps from the pan gasket, and the carburetors are tuned to run rich. These issues indicate that the car has moderate wear and requires some reconditioning.
