Frame and half shafts look a little rough/rusty to me. Might just be the pics or might just be surface rust, but they cause me concern.
Pic of the rear suspension shows uneven gap at spring end links (even with yellow arrows pointing it out!). Not sure what that's about, but another thing I'd want to know about.
No pics of the interior. Sounds like some work was done on it, so I'd add more pics to show it off.
My honest feedback. Good luck with your sale! Sorry it's been forced upon you.

FLAMES....some people will love them, others not so much. I'm in the not so much camp. Customization is always going to shrink your pool of potential buyers, IMO.

The frame is solid, half shafts are solid, all is surface rust. Lol, I forgot about the yellow lines I drew in, I did that after I took the pic at the shop, I wondered the same thing, I thought the VBP spring was off center, it was the angle I was at and no load, ur right about the inside pics, Im having the new top installed this week then going to add them
