Pics as promised.
Car is sitting under trees and is filthy. Interior has more wear since I've seen it a year ago. Not my car yet so I can't pretty it up for photos.

I have not had personal experience with this, nor do I have chrome wheels, but there have been posts on this forum that the chroming process can weaken the wheels. Otherwise, great price with all you have. GLWS if you decide.

made offer today
Owner is tracking down his service records for me so I haven't looked at them yet. Also requested the records from the local P dealer (Champion) where it was serviced.
Made initial offer of $38K. Based this on the car being mechanically sound as per a future PPI at Gulf Performance in Pompano before actual sale.
Needs front chin spoiler (~$200); complete detail in & out (~$400); leather on both door panel sills (~$2,000 as per his est. from local leather guy). P dealer wants $5,700 to put P leather on it (not gonna happen.); 30K mile service including auto trans flush (~$1,800).
So with these to do's I'd be at $42,400 all in.
We then determined it has just had what amounts to the 30K mile maintenance, so I upped my offer by $1,500. So $39,500.
Feeling good about this. Should happen this week. I believe the car is gonna look sharp once the paint is corrected and the gets some TLC.
NOW about those chrome wheels! Probably my first mod.
