$10.5k? I'd pick that up quick (before someone else does), unless something is really wrong that the pics don't show.
Forward me the info if you pass, but I doubt you will. So post more pics when you get it.

at $10,500 if it runs and drives well, you should consider it.. you can find a nicer, more original car, but it will be considerably more money.

That not a bad price. You really need to check frame and birdcage for rust. Pics of interior, underneath, and under hood would be very helpful for us to assist you.

Hi cmb,
I'd think $10,500 is a pretty low price.
I think you need to understand just what a 70 convertible that's being sold for that price is.... or isn't.
Be informed and careful!!!
Regards,
Alan

In fact, for me it's a scary price!

It's painted "resale red" for a reason.
Appears to be missing the drivers door panel and the passenger panel is red vs the back seats/interior. Also missing is the antenna.
Doesn't look bad though from 25 feet but I'd be careful.

looks like just minor adjustment stuff and after market stuff you can replace correctly..

10K for a 70 convertible? unless it is rusty, buy it.. but rust is a deal killer and as said above.. the price is scary low.. so it almost has to be rusty.

jack it up and spend at least an hour under it.. then decide. or at least ask for underside pics and decide from there to look closer.

Default Missing trim

Hard to tell, but, it appears it is missing the SS (painted) trim on the windshield wiper door cover and the continuation pieces to the fender tops.

Doesn't matter where the car is currently located... it could have spent a lot of time in the salt belt. A rusty frame will git ya good.
