Too few pictures and too little information to really assess it's value. From what little info there is it would be worth an inspection to ascertain color codes, engine numbers and condition.

There are 36,000 reasons to obtain much more information. I always wonder when so many important things are left unsaid and up close photos of the underside purposely omitted.

i always wonder why ppl dont put as much info as they can when they are trying to sell something also...
especially when its a old car...
anyone who is anyone would want to know as much info about the car as they can....

and when you live the other side of the world... it makes it even harder...
