Additional info regarding condition & repairs etc:

I have not found any rust on this vehicle at all.Headlight switch and turn signal switch were replaced a couple months ago. Headlights, taillights, dash lights (gauges), and turn signals all work. A few bulbs were recently replaced.Front speakers were disconnected during the installation of the new headlight switch. Rear aftermarket speakers work.Wheels are believed to be original.
The power steering unit seems to have a slight fluid leak.The new paint, interior, exhaust, chrome, leaf springs, mouldings, engine build etc was done approximately 2-3 years ago by a previous owner.The temp gauge might need repair as it doesn't move very much once the engine is warmed up. it Seems to have a limited range of motion.One of the gauges is supposed to be a clock, but it appears that the arms are missing.The speedometer shakes a little bit at lower speeds.The steering wheel is cracked in a couple places and appears to have been repaired a couple times.There is some overspray underneath the car - assuming from the recent paint job.There is a slight buzzing noise that comes from the gear shifter when putting the car in reverse. At one time, intermittently, when putting the car in reverse you had to give it a little gas before it would begging moving backwards. That issue seems to have gone away on it's own, but not 100% sure. I was told by a mechanic that there are bands inside the transmission pan that can be adjusted to solve that issue, but I can't guaranty that information.There appears to be an exhaust rattle randomly on cold starts. It comes from the rear driver's side. I believe it's one of the exhaust hangers.Rear view mirror moves a little while driving. I didn't want to replace it because it appears to be original.The oil pressure gauge also does not work.
PLEASE contact me with any additional questions or picture requests.
