Specifics of the car:
BODY

Body is in great shape. a few small bubbles forming on the drivers door (see picture)Very bottom of rockers has a little surface rust. Not rusted through, but want to mention it (see picture)Underside still has factory undercoating. A few spots where the undercoating has fallen off and little surface is showing (see pictures)I included one picture of the support under the car right in front of the passenger side spring hanger, there is some rust, but it is still solid. I would address that eventually before it becomes a problem.
Paint looks great. I am not sure if the paint is original or been resprayed. I am leaning towards resprayed.Turquoise paint has some small pits which show white paint underneath. The seam between rear quarter and trunk area has been touched up.
Quarter, doors, rockers and fenders are solid. No filler or patches from looking under the car.Floors, braces, etc. are all solid with no rust issues and look to be original to the car.Battery area is rust free.
