Default 70 Pontiac T/A on eBay

Here's a 70 T/A recently listed on eBay. Pictures look good, what do others think?

Ad says 10 bolt, but from the pics the car has a 12 bolt in it. A few other things I noticed in a quick look:
.Dash is a standard dash, but should be deluxe (and pad obviously needs to be replaced anyway)
.Missing front shoulder belts
.Wrong alternator and missing rear bracket for alternator
.Wrong air cleaner
.Wrong interior rear quarter trim panels
.Wrong tailpipe tips, and dual mufflers instead of transverse
.Bottom painted black on a Norwood car
.Definitely a home made trunk repair...

Pretty car, though - I love the white on red ones, but this one's overpriced. And jeez I wish the owners/sellers of these things would quit calling them "Patriot Editions"...

Agreed!

This car comes off really WELL considering there is a TON of things that are incorrect.

Partiot Edition..... I wonder who dreamed that one up.

I've said THIS before & it does really sum it up.

RED neck

White trash

Blue collar

It takes a certain percentage of EACH to be a "dedicated" T/A owner.

It's not a T/A hood. No lip around the hood scoop hole.
Correct or not correct, that red's got to go.

I might be a little too heavy on the white trash......
