    DING DING DING! Correct, and door panels too. A lot nicer than the plastic and vinyl Chevy interior!

    In the 90's a friends Grama passed away and his Dad got her car, I can't remember exactly but it basikly had no miles on it yet the heater core was bypassed. I drove it to do the heater core...reall eazy, all under the hood... it was, just what it was, plain jane disposable car but it was 100% mint and clean, no miles so it drove like brand new, exact colour combo inside and out as yours, but it had steelies painted the same colour as body and dog dishes... It was mint but, sorry....I just could not see myself owning one. I think he took $500ish for it after I replaced the heater core.

    For a while there these cars were practically being given away. Nobody wanted them. Today they are pretty much all gone.

    I actually bought the orange one as a parts car for the X-11, but it was in too good a shape to tear up, so I ended up cleaning it up, putting the Olds Omega interior in it and giving it to a friend. It was SLOW and boring. Weird options too...it had the base interior but power windows and locks. Odd.

    It did have steel wheels with poverty caps when I bought it. I added the full wheel covers from my tan car. ; )
