Condition
The Vermillion Fire paintwork presents well across the body with good gloss and depth. The GT-style black striping and bonnet scoop complement the vehicle's authentic muscle car appearance. Chrome bumpers and exterior brightwork present with light age-related patina consistent with a classic vehicle. Panel alignment appears even throughout, while the body presents as a straight and well-maintained example. The interior retains its classic presentation with black and white trim, original-style dashboard and instrumentation, and seating showing wear appropriate to the vehicle's age.
