Nice looking car but by the looks of the way hood and light buckets fit I'd say there's been some badly done repair work to the front end. Paint looks a bit suspect in some photos as well.

It does not look like there is any way to align the light buckets to match the front valence. I'd keep looking. There are much better deals out there. If you are really interested, I would have it appraised by an expert. That is a lot of $(well, to me it is). GLIYS.

It appears that it was bought needing minor work, possibly brake calipers. They should refinish the console (has scratches) and clean (water spots) the gauge faces. I'll bet they didn't do any other work. They are flipping it is my guess. Dennis

It must be one of those rare BB units that got the hood support on the passenger side........

the camera angles prevent viewing the symmetry of the car's bumpers and panel fit is obscured by lighting and color.

Reflections in the paint seem blurry and at odds with how the paint was described.

VIN and trim tag would be essential for sale

Guess its bait for people to see in person and weeds out tire kickers.

All interesting if any truth to the description's accuracy.
