Did anyone else notice how the brake & clutch pedals look off? One of them seems to be slanted in the picture. I have to wonder what DID happen to that driver'r rear fender if it was not hit. That is a large area that has been messed with. I do like the 900 color on that car. I do not like it for 28,000 in the condition it is in.

...I've pretty much understood a true Survivor car/NCRS Bowtie car as a car that's been preserved and cared for well enough that if someone restoring a like car, the paint color/texture/glass/trim, the chassis parts & finishes, the interior fabric/color, the engine compartment finishes and such could be used as a reference guide or text book example.

...if a car is so deteriorated to the point where it can't be used for these "references", it's not much use as a "Survivor" or "Bowtie" car.

...the "Survivor" & "Bowtie" Awards are for the preservation of quality original cars.
