Inner doors (around door panel) orange instead of black.

That being said, still an awesome car, I would take it if given to me.

70 taillights...Pedal dress up kit (SE option)...GM type aftermarket seat belts (noticed that cause thats what I have in my car, LOL).

What is that yellow sticker on the grille frame on the right side? Is it one of those decals on 70 models telling you how to manually open the electric headlamp doors?  :shruggy:

Besides those awful engine compartment failures....the bucket seats look over "stuffed" and who-the-hell puts a trim ring on a spare tire?.  :shruggy:

It a beautiful car, just clearly not stock restored, nor represented as such. Nowhere do I see the ad saying "no expense spared to make it a correct stock restoration".

Wow, and i thought the 300 Club guys were bad about this... One would think we of all people would be happy there's one more not being jumped though the air with "every expense spared"....



Nice '69..Wish i could have done mine to that level.

Wow couldn't even get the trunk rubber seal in the right spot. What a badly put together car.
