Exterior

Here are some shots of the exterior, click for a larger view:

As I said on the main page, this car was delivered to and spent it's life in eastern Oregon. This area of the country is very dry, desert like and hence, all the sheetmetal on this car is mint & rust free. At some point the car was involved in a minor fender bender and the right front fender has been replaced. There was no structural damage to the inner fenders. All the GTE trim is there (the right front fender trim is not on the car) and is impossible to find if you don't have it. There are a number of small dings and scratches. Remember that most of the paint on this car has been there for 40 years. The original vinyl top has some stains and a couple of rips. I was planning on cleaning it up and patching the rips as is it would have fitted the survivor/driver look.

Emblems and Misc

This car comes with an original set of GTE emblems that cost me a small fortune (think more than a grand). They are in very nice shape and the condition would actually be perfect for a driver/survivor look. In addition, there is a set of high-quality reproduction emblems. Included is a set of reproduction wheel caps, and a NOS antenna. The car comes with it's original GTE headlight trim, but an expensive set of reproduction trim is included (pictured with the repro-emblems). Not pictured is an original jack that goes with it.
