    It does look stock, alittle rough, showing some rust, but looks like an honest car. My least favorate year of 2nd gen Birds, and something just looks off with the black side molding. It does match the 74/75 rubber bumpers. But I don't remember seeing that color before.

    Not a bad buy at the current price of $7800 but I don't think I would pay much more.

    Sorry I didn't mean the Paint color, but the color of the body side molding, when I reread my prior post I also read it as the paint color.

    It also has white wall tires on rally wheel, never cared for that combo on any car, but easy to fix.

    I don't think that body side molding is factory, it looks added on later compared to the ones I've normally seen on these cars. I could be wrong though.

    Of interest to note because of the rear defrost it has the 80A alternator under the hood though, that's an uncommon thing to see on these cars.
