very old black paint job with lots of dents and scratches. Paint is cracking on trunk, faded on front end. removed trim on sides. Fender skirts when they'll stay on...

Interior

Serape wrapped factory back seat, Unknown rdblue lowbacks up front that i haven't gotten around to bolting in. Factory dash has more waves in it than a Hawaiian beach. Patched a BIG hole in pass. floor. No headliner, no carpet, 1 door panel, basically

Audio

factory AM makes a crackling noise when you turn it on... Added a Sony head unit in the glove box with a pair of 6x9s in the dash and another pair in the rear package tray- still not loud enough to hear over the motor!!
