>The car is a one-owner 110hp Powerglide with 10K actual miles.  It's

>  ST 69 10537       WRN 381630 BDY
>  TR 707 59 59 PNT
>  05A G

>The body is straight with nothing more than a few minor door dings.
>There are no signs of body work.  The lower seams in the doors show no
>sign of swelling.  The lower rear fender bottoms have no rust, no rust
>in lower front fenders, and no rust around wheels wells.  The rockers
>are solid. 
>
>The undercarriage is very clean with virtually no rust, including
>surface rust.  It appears that the car was rustproofed by the dealer
>with a WaxOyl type product.  The bright trim is in very good condition
>and the only ding is in the cove trim along the engine compartment lid.
>Even the wheel surrounds are ding-free.  The bumpers are good and are
>ding and dent-free.  Glass is all good..  Doors open and close solidly.

>The engine runs, but I didn't drive the car.  The AIR smog equipment is
>there and intact.  A picture of the engine compartment is attached.  The
>push rod tubes need to be resealed and the right side thermostat bellows
>is bad.  
>
>There is rust on both corners of the windshield and along the dash next
>to the windshield.  It doesn't appear to be bad enough to require
>replacement of the outside panel.    There is rust in the lower section
>of the A pillar on the driver's side.  I didn't probe it, but it appears
>to be through and not just on the surface.

>The interior is virtually like new although the steering wheel appears
>to have flaking paint, or perhaps it's just dirt (my '69 had blue paint
>over a green wheel).  The exterior paint is in rough shape (appears to
>be the result of being stored with a non-breathable cover.

>Bottom line is that this is a very original car in need of some TLC and

>be willing to take more pictures or do additional evaluation for anyone
>who is seriously interested (the car is about an hour from me).
>
>Contact Bonnie (see first post for contact info) for price.
