Putting "Lucerne Blue" in the title of the auction for this one is a bit disingenuous, though, given the paint on the car is "unusable", and from the factory it was white (which they state in the ad, if you read it... but still).
High VIN number - this was one of the last '70 T/As built.

Good catch on it being white originally. IMO you can do whatever you want to cars that are not numbers matching regarding interior and exterior colors without affecting their value. Painting this car blue vs. white wouldn't change the value unless white was in higher demand.
What I like about this car is the clean floorboards. Rust is what costs the most to fix. I currently have my 75 T/A in the shop and it should be finished next week. Complete Edelbrock top end on a NOM and it should run fine on pump gas. If this car were numbers matching, you'd almost have to go NOS for everything and it would cost a bunch.
Also worth noting is the shaker appears to be in the trunk.
One more thing... there's no headrests. Weren't they standard in 70?
