The bad:

Needs some rust repair after 45 years. Please see pictures as I want to be brutally honest and have no misunderstandings. It is not cancer, just neglect and an easy fix.

The valve lash is a little off and it should have studded roller rockers and custom length push rods.

The power steering pump whines a little, I will give a spare with purchase just in case.

Crack across windshield.

stitching in front seat needs redone in 2 small lines. Like 4 inches or so and center arm rest/glove box lid needs to be redone.

Drivers side muffler needs to be replaced.

All in all a great car with a few things any 45 year old car might need.

Being that is a 45 year old car I can not predict any future issues and offer no implied or expressed warranty, this is an as is car.

Please see the you tube video youtube.com/watch?v=_Ap7x13fkZk I am playing with the valve lash adjusting the rocker tightness. The oil burning if from it running and throwing oil with valve cover off. Oh, and it is a little loude because part of the rear of the muffle pulled loose. I'll fix it prior to delivery.
