Ok i'll start.

First, if the guy calls the suregrip a "posi" thats a  :nono:
Second it looks like the corner valence caps are smoothed over, thats a  :nono:
Third, The trunk is all green, then the floor mat has black paint spray around it..   :shruggy:

Oh and deduct 50% off the starting price for color..  :yesnod:   :puke:

Hmmm, the black spray at the edges of the trunk mat appears only on the last image.  On the image directly above it, which is a wide angle shot of the exact same area, there is no black spray???

Me too,  :2thumbs: I personally really like green cars  :drool5: , I had a dark green 68 Charger R/T, my 1st car, back in 1973-74, that may have something to do with it...  :slap:

Thw woodgrain is not only dark, it doesn't even look like the usual grain.  Maybe he 'enhanced' it a bit.

What's with the tan carpet?

Some 70's had that pipe for vapor emission release....some didn't. I think all Cali cars had them.

That car is super clean and there are some detractions but $65k......no. $40 to $50k quite possibly.  :Twocents:

Two different photo sequences, taken at two different times. Clearly a before and after, and the after has had a spray painting.

Bizarre doesn't begin to describe what we see. Raises questions of what does the spray paint hide.  :Twocents:

I'm with you, the color doesn't turn me off but the price, yikes.

I saw this car personally at Carlisle. It's a very high level very expensive restoration and I liked the color very much in real life. The paint and bodywork is so perfect that it almost makes every other car look bad.

The car would be worthy of a 65K price if I owned it.  :Twocents:
