    Wow that is low option! A/C and 455 are nice options though. If I squint, I think I may see that it has rear window defrost as well? It looks like I see the wires on the tailgate window. That was unheard of on those cars down here in the south.

    You might be right about rear window defrost. Also, does this pic look like front power seat maybe?

    If this one was a tad bit cheaper and wasn't so far away I would probably buy it.

    Ha! ;)

    No, I mean the side of the driver side seat bolster that is silver ( not the trash beside it). Looks like a possible GM factory 6-way power seat control (maybe).

    Hmm... good eye! I really cant tell, but it looks like it may. If it does, that would be pretty rare on a otherwise plain-Jane Safari.

    Nope. I think it's just some silver trash. From the pic, you would see the actual seat control for sure.

    Well I declare. Well at least it has a 455, A/C and rear window defroster. :) Rear defroster and A/C was a rare combo back then... they either had one or the other. lol.

    Exterior wise, it also has bumper guards, bumper rub strips (front), body side moldings and towing package, which may explain the 455.
