Exterior is also very nice, the engine compartment, undercarriage, original paint, battery tray, engine pan, and trans-axle are super clean, oil, dirt free and well maintained.Even though I'm not the original owner - you can tell this vehicle has been garaged it's whole life, and from the looks of it - I don't think it ever saw any bad weather, salt or snow.It's very clean - no matter where you look.The paint looks great - Yes there are a few minor paint chips (35 years of use) up front - it's original and shines super well, with clarity and depth at a 9 out of 10.I have factory color touch up paint and clear coat as needed.

Gauges and instruments work great; The clock does not keep time, but runs sometimes.Excellent sounding stereo with 4 speakers and original front/rear fade control dial.I do not have the original radio, but one can be picked up for about $300-$400
