What is up with the interior of this one?
Doesn't look "correct" to me? - Blue color seems "off", maybe the lighting?
Steering wheel, exhaust, what else?

Looks like a very nicely done restoration.

the coloring is a bit off.....almost looks to have been spray bombed?? lower quarter trim panels are 71's, lower door panels have been covered as well....by rights a Standard Interior Car should not have a trunk mat either fwiw.....and those correct "Lucerne Blue" stripes....

110k restoration and they put the wrong dash bezel and fenders on? Hmmm....

I like restored cars like that one though, its cool having a car that looks all stock but has some nice aftermarket parts on it, but not for the price they're asking!

Did the stripe not wrap into the shaker opening originally?

. Body seem rear panel to qtr is filled with bondo. I would run from this car. My thought is this car was saved from a scrap yard after it was stripped of its original parts.

Wrong year (later) tilt.....that whole column/wheel is indexed.....

They moved the steering wheel over (one set of screws) on the hub....but the cap index is not quite that simple.

The widened (later) 15" Rally's actually look pretty good on there.....
