I understand that things do not hold up well when not used. At the same time the way the car is described it is all original as left the factory. I am pointing out that the factory tips did not have stamped part numbers.

I thought you meant the rear pipes, from your posting, not the chrome tips.

If I look at those pinstripes and flames I am figuring that the guy wanted the shiniest tips sticking out the back possible. That necessitated a trip to the dealership for replacements?
Maine's proximity to salt air would have those tips in rough shape in short order once the original owner started driving the car. As I understand it, the flame job was applied under the ownership of the second guy...

Neat car! What's with all these ultra low mileage cars coming out of the woodwork?

An engine photo from this century would be nice in an advertisement looking for a six figure amount. :-)

Old photo shows wrong master cylinder and yellow crimped wiring repairs by alternator.

What's with the chrome fender trim around the wheel wells?

Good eye!! If you blow up the right rear 3/4 view, you can see a molding screw right above the flare. Cut up full moldings I'd say. But why?

Another low miler,up for auction in June. Looks pretty nice. Kind of a low pre-auction estimate.
