Default nice car but the color clash?

Black, red or any other color interior would be better. Better yet, any other exterior color would work.

If I didn't know that it had a pink hue to it I could live with that. Nice spoiler.

Off topic, but will the rear spoiler fit like that?
New holes don't need drilled to do that?

Agree with OP, not a fan of the pearl exterior and parchment interior.

Prefer the factory “triple white” look in 68. Cameo Ivory, pearl interior, and white top.

But I’m kinda biased.

Couldn’t be bothered to center this up? Who ever put this thing together wasn’t into the details.

Cobbed in radio bezel is crooked too. Gauge plastic looks horrible. Looks like the wrong turn signal stalk, wiper blade is coming apart.

Backward spoiler is that for lift at speed?

I like how the pearl interior grabs the pearls in the paint, but that rear spoiler makes me crazy. Hard to look at.....

I hate to disappoint but it's gone apparently. It appears someone gave up $20K for the pleasure of having it. Dang!

Maybe the listing ran out, and it's going to be relisted.
