Seen it listed a few times. Looks like it has all of the (short list of) options available. Which is impressive.
But the ask is high IMO based on everything they say it needs and everything the pictures show it needs. Looks like it was undercoated which...might be a problem, might be a godsend. Car definitely saw some salt. But by no means a lost cause. If the front frame rails aren't shot it's definitely worth the mild restoration to have a decked-out 20th. The floormats seem to have been kept safe....

Wow yeah I didn't notice that at first! Sheesh...and I was upset about my upper trans tunnel missing some color! Hard to believe that this is what passed for production back then.

Hell I have seen a 90 30th anniversary Thunderbird with 600 (yes that's correct) miles that has door bottoms and jambs like that. My car has fully covered door bottoms and jambs. I think in that era a UAW guy was responsible for painting the cars with a gun vs a robot. Or Ford had robots that would occasionally go out of practice/have a few too many beers the night before :hick:.
