Screw everything else. Go back and look at the body work 2 or 3 more times. If
everything else is looking tired and it has been reapinted a couple of times.
then go back with a magnet and a jack. Magnet the entire body under the chrome
trim and the jack the car up and look for gobs of bondo and holes etc. If it
passes that test then maybe but I would talk them down a bit. Even in pricy New
England this is overpriced.

Bodywork: looks sound, but paint job is pretty poor. It was re-painted some
years ago and now this new paint is flaking off in a couple of places and
had oxidised on the boot lid. There are 3 colors visible: white (original),
orange (first re-spray), blue (later respray). No "crack of doom" visible
in either door.
