Sorry, but I don't agree. For $35,000 the car better be exactly right 
and it's not. Weber carbs, big honkin' amp in the trunk and rear 
speakers, leather upholstery (!!), aftermarket wheel, missing eyeball 
vents, missing windscreen trim finisher, absence of rear fender 
decals, wrong wheel centers, Sunfast top (as nice as they are, it's 
not original-spec).....
The claim that the car is concours quality is just plain wrong.
