Notes:
Could be for sale in a year or two. Nice white with red trim, although white
is GM Classic White (Ultra White) and not the original off-white, as under hood and
trunk lid. Ranger side trim and roof is closer to original deep red. Body
is mostly solid with some bubbling at rockers, wheel wells and rear deck behind the
bumper. Interior upholstery is original but rough. All white metal parts
are pitted. Rear bumper is dented. Oval grille has cracks. Perfect
showroom condition parts include front bumpers, four red "E" wheel covers and some of
the stainless steel trim strips. Very restorable; probably halfway between
showable and restorable (top "C").
