Now that's how to sell it. Details on the parts numbers and dates. The last one that went across the block didn't even have pictures with the air cleaner off.

I noticed they said "15 inch wheels" but did not specify that they were the correct Kelsey Hayes wheels so I'm assuming they are not. A set of correct wheels, as I'm sure you know, will cost ya.

ETA: The vinyl top is also not correct, far as I know. I'm pretty sure none of the 63 R codes came with a vinyl top.

Side-Oilers

I'm always leery about any car with an air freshener thingy hanging from the dashboard.  Mold is a natural scent, right?
