Nice!!! But shows some wear for such low miles. Also, who stole the leather shifter ****?

I have never understood the folks who go through the trouble of saving a car and then install generic tires and an econo power battery....

They probably just bought it to flip it and are just trying to squeeze every penny out of it with no thought of adding value with correct parts. I could see the cheap battery, as you can't exactly really get a totally correct replacement battery. But those Nexen blackwalls look totally out of place.

I agree as well. It looks like the car was not stored properly. It's still a very nice example.

The leather on the shift **** is known to "release" and separate from the ball. My father's did the same, so he injected some glue through the stitches, spun the cover around a few times and allowed the glue to dry. These people probably just removed the cover.
