It's pretty rough and rusty, but it could be a decent parts donor, at least for wide 5 bits.  If it wasn't for it being on the other side of the country, I'd get it.

No need for wipers in sunny California? And if I buy, do I get paid for the associated wheeler dealer tv appearance?

I call BS about the line "interior still remains in its original untouched form". That is not original fabric and door panels that are 47 years old and have 94K+ on them.

looks like bug ones. I've done that before, but not on a car that nice. It deserves genuine originals

The car is sold new in Sweden (Swedish license plates) and these are the type of mud flaps that were installed at the dealer when the car was sold. |

I just thought I'd ask, as it almost looks like type 3 mud flaps installed on the wrong sides (l on r, and r on l).

Come on. If you're going to try sell a set of gauges as "restored" for $750, at least have them match.

these are 14's https://www.vintagewarehouse.com/1969square.htm
they look good... I know someone with a tan fastback on original 2 piece 14 inch empi 8 spokes, it looks good too. He is using 185/60-14's |
Thank you! That's not as bad a look as I thought it would be |

That's what I was thinking. While the metal and mechanical might be sound, it still needs 6 to 8K worth of cash AND labor thrown at it.
