Could use bodywork and a repaint or just use as a driver.Like most Vegas it has some rust in the common areas for these cars:Lower front windshield channel, ear hatch around window, nd the factory battery tray area. These areas could easily be repaired and otherwise the car is solid, ry, nd rust free.

Please see the pictures for more details.

The rear seat folds flat to make a pretty large cargo area.

Gauge information:The factory speedometer and odometer work.The car also has additional aftermarket Sunpro gauges including:Tachometer, oolant Temp, il Pressure, amp; Voltage that all work.Normal operating coolant temp is 180-195 degrees F.Normal oil pressure is 23-60 psi.Normal voltage is 13.5-14 volts.
The fuel gauge doesn't really work correctly.It reads from full to about a half tank and just stays at half reading.Luckily you can see the fuel level in the tank through the filler neck if necessary.Probably needs a new sending unit to fix the issue.
The factoryAnalog clock doesn't work.
Both turn signals and flashers work correctly.
The factory parking brake works.
