    I got pics of the underside of the car...it's just as clean as the top. After seeing the underside I would say the mileage is original and it has been garaged most of its life.

    Finished at just a couple bucks short of $3400. Pretty good price if it looks as good up close as it does in the pictures.


    What is really amazing is the number of people that looked at it - 4277 on the page counter. :eek:

    I talked with the seller this afternoon via phone, I didn't have that warm fuzzy feelng after I hung up with him so I let it slide. He said someone from the Club that lived near him came and looked at it this past weekend...couldnt remeber his name though.

    I hope it looks as good in person as it does in the pics for whoever bought it.

    Somebody obviously has put alot of time detailing it ... Notice:

    Newly painted car and engine
    Sport Mirrors added
    Comet GT scoop added
    Late Model Steering wheel
    Repop Trunk Mat
    Painted spare and Jack
    New Carpet
    Rims painted to match the body


    I would just really worry about this car without inspecting it because it is obviously being sold in the North - snow and salt belt ... Perhaps it was a rust free southern car or super low mileage granny car that somebody bought and spruced up ...
