Not a bad car, but it is a little rough around the edges.






I wonder what happened to the back end? It looks like a whole different car.




It's not one of the raised-roof Vista Cruisers. It is relatively low-optioned with only air-conditioning that I can see. No power windows or locks or anything. No tilt wheel or cruise control. Only a two-seater. Not even a luggage rack. As it sits, I'd say it's worth maybe 2 grand.

 

It is the 73 version of the Vista Cruiser with the sunroof (the sunroof became optional 74-77) it is low option, does not even have a passenger side rear view mirror, but could be a nice car with some work.

Agreed on the value as sits.

 

Now with the "big wheel" effect. That should sure boost value (snark). But why does the tailgate look better?

He only replaced the tailgate sticker. The right rear one is still original, showing the faded edge which is adjacent to the new sticker
