Small dent(about the size of a golf ball) on pass rear fender flare. This was there when I bought the car and have not had the chance to take care of it.

Various other small dings around the body from rocks, other car doors:mad: , nothing major.
The seat belt brackets that were originally attatched to the seats were cut off to put in the harness’. In order to convert it back, or what I wanted to do, a Euro belt conversion, you need to find brackets and weld them back on, or buy new seats.
The door speakers were dry-rotted so they were removed from the doors.
Drivers side door speker grill has gone missing on me
A few lines on the rear winder defogger don’t work. It doesn’t affect rear vision for me, just kinda annoying to me they don’t work.

The heated seat element for your ass on the crivers side doesn’t work.
Cruise control intermitent(sp?)
I’m asking $6500. I will entertain REASONABLE offers but NO Lowballers please. I put a lot of time and work into this and I know what it’s worth.
As for pics I will get some up soon. Car’s kinda messy right now and quite dirty so I’ll have to go over it when I have some time.
I guess thats all I can think of for now. Thanks Guys!!! Mike
