Never seen or heard of it before....

Agreed looks to be a very correct and original car. Still has the open face alternator, even.
I'm a fan of Motor Wheel Spyders..., but they look a little lame with the centers painted blue. And those look like 14 x 6's ... a bit on the small/skinny side. I wonder if they've been on the car since its days as a contest prize? There's no wheel option on the PHS, so it would have had caps off the line.

A few nits:
There appears to be a hole in the top of the RH quarter panel...? (a CB antenna there, once, maybe?)
Tailpipes are wrong (as are the mufflers under the rear seat... whole exhaust system basically -- but it probably sounds good)
Interior door release handles are missing the black trim, and the drivers armrest vinyl is starting to delaminate
It's been enthusiastically Ziebarted (all the yellow plugs along the rocker), which may be why there's none of the original red oxide e-coat visible on the bottom, either
Front of console once had something drilled/mounted into it
Orange air cleaner...?

Asking price seems very reasonable if everything works and it drives fine.
