the car has beautiful interior...i bought a new carpet kit because it was faded....right above the factory tach are two drilled holes where they had a sunpro tach mounted.....seat belts, console, gauges, everthing is factory....two small holes in headliner.....the car has had some repair work on the driver's side quarter, the one door has a skin (done nice) and two NOS fenders...all of this work was done back in the early 70's before the car was parked...hood, valance, roof, etc is still original paint....not bad but could use a repaint....floors, rockers, trunk pan are beautiful....everything is in tact..does not have the engine but does have trans/converor, crossmember, driveshaft, etc.....hood is also in beautiful shape...big block louvered hood..all RS headlights in tact...it was kept in a nice indoor facility....the weatherstripping still looks great...the window trim and drip rail molding looks beautiful.........
