Well I don’t know if it’s a ‘expert’ opinion but definitely well informed. The car does have potential, especially if the paint and clearcoat hasn’t lifted and it can be cleaned and polished to an even consistency. Though original, it has Not been well cared for over the years. The undercarriage, trim, wheels, motor and window trim all need refurbishing. The interior is also average but original except for the drilled rear speakers. The headliner is soiled and the dash is sun warped probably needing to be reupholstered. The motor is unknown, with possible oil or exhaust leaks which are very common. Assuming the motor has good compression it shows to be original except for minor stuff; headers, EGR, intecooler gasket, a/c compressor. Curious, the owner says it passed smog in California, without EGR or thermal reactors? I want that smog guy. Again it’s an average car, but mostly original which you can’t say for all of the cars on BAT. New owner needs to have a plan if he wants to make it special. Or just drive it.
