    Not a very good listing for a guy who wants $13,000+ for a car that's not even worth half that. Poor quality photos, many are redundant, many are too small, and he doesn't show very much of the interior.

    The car itself badly needs to be repainted. It may be in good shape mechanically, but it is a long way from needing nothing, which is what I'd expect for $13,000.

    I also spy corrosion on the bottom end of this door:

    That door rust looks like oil or undercoating creep rather than rust. Looks to be as great car other than the price. If all true it looks to be one of those cars you can go pick up and drive home. Glamour shots are not good for a sale. They are nice for friends but to me you can take glamour shots of a stick and make it look cool. Show some real pictures.

    I would have taken the $6,600 and run like a bandit. The wood grain is sketchy, the rails need to be re wrapped and done. Paint is bad, it’s dirty, no air, blah blah blah. Other than that Mrs Kennedy, how was the trip? That guy is loooooo looooo
