Condition 

6

The car has moderate wear on the exterior, interior and wheels. There are a few small dents, light paint scratches, or noticeable curb marks. Some reconditioning is required. Specific flaws include an antenna that doesn't fully retract, an inoperative rear window defroster, non-functional power door locks, inoperative heating and air conditioning, a split in the dashboard pad, a loose panel on the driver's seat, cracks in the wood dashboard trim, and distorted floor pans. The seller notes that the front and rear brakes will soon require replacement, and there are oil leaks. There is evidence of past repairs and replacements but the car presents many issues.
