What the photos show
- blue-grey metallic paint looks glossy and even all around with straight panels and tight gaps in studio and outdoor photos, no damage visible, so no repaint cost is suggested
- chrome bumpers, grille, window frames and hubcaps look bright and unpitted even in close-ups, so no re-chrome bill is suggested
- cream leather seats look clean and well shaped through the glass front and rear with no tears visible, so no reupholstery cost is suggested
- dash zebrawood looks deep and glossy with clean gauges, wheel and radio, so no dash restoration is suggested
- perforated headliner looks clean, tight and unstained across several close photos, so no headliner replacement is suggested
- door shut chrome and seals look clean and bright in close-up, so no door-edge repair is suggested
- underside on the lift looks clean, black and dry with a tidy exhaust and no rust visible, so no obvious underbody bill is suggested
- engine bay is not shown in the sampled photos, so engine condition cannot be judged from these photos
Money: at the $112,500 sold price the photos show a genuinely sharp coupe for noticeably less than the silver Schmitt car in this same batch, so on visible condition this looks like the better-value 3.5 of the two, engine bay aside
