That's exactly what I was thinking.

The ad says interior is great shape but to me the front seat looks like it's a total waste , all torn up & ripped out with the stuffing showing. Why the flat tire. It may be original but not worth what he's asking. Maybe $ 600.00

Look again- there are clear plastic covers on the seats- that's what is torn and split. The original upholstery looks to be in reasonably good condition. Despite the lousy pics, the car seems to actually be in quite good condition. Could easily be a $6,000 car- nowhere near $60,000 though! I'd like to see the car out in the open and cleaned up... and maybe put some air in the tires.

Agree. Looking at the photo pix of the sheet metal appears to be little or no rust, which for me trumps any trim, tire, and interior issues. If it was a 2 door I'd be all over it "as is" for "6K".
