What the photos show
- Bright blue paint is glossy and even with straight panels, no paint work needed
- Chrome grille and bumpers shine clean, no re-chrome spend needed
- Blue soft top fits tight with clear rear windows, and the matching blue hardtop is shown fitted, no top spend needed
- Cream seats look fresh and tight with no creasing or tears, no need to reupholster
- Blue dash top and glossy wood console look clean with tidy carpets, no interior trim spend needed
- Rear deck carpet behind the seats is faded and water-marked, budget a shampoo or new deck carpet, a small cost
- Trunk carpet is faded and stained, budget a replacement trunk carpet set
- Bundt alloy wheels are clean and the Hankook tires show deep tread, no tire spend right away
- The sampled photos repeat exterior angles and interior close-ups, and no engine bay photo is shown, can't judge the engine bay
- No underside photo is shown in the sampled photos, can't judge underside rust
Money: At $27,900 the paint, both tops and fresh-looking seats carry the price, with only faded trunk and deck carpets as cheap fixes, but leave room for an engine inspection since none is shown.
