    The front and back ends are a mess, particularly the front. Bumper rubber strips are falling off. Headlights pointed every way but straight ahead. $6500 is way too much money for a car that looks like this.

    Another Craigslist car that a $.50 vacuum would help. I’m always amazed that people want top dollar for stuff they won’t even wash or clean out. I always think if they won’t pop for a wash/vacuum, when’s the last time they sprung for a $20.00 oil change.

    Probably the last time you could actually get an oil change for $20! :)

    Yeah, wonder what happened to those left-side headlights. He must have hit something. There's certainly plenty of sun damage. But, nothing that can't get taken care of. It has potential for being a nice car, when done. Make him an offer and then make a winter project out of it
