The Bad:
- Speedometer does not work - I just can’t figure this one out yet

- Radiator core support has rust in the usual location (very bottom) - I have a spare that is in much better shape that I will include.
- Fan shroud has a few cracks that have been repaired
- Car had AC, but that is long since gone

Probably more stuff, I just can't remember. Asking $9,800 OBO with the 18 inch rims and tires. If you prefer, I have a set of rallies with caps and trim rings (will need tires), asking $8,800 OBO with the rallies instead of the 18 inch rims.
