one thing i would is get rid of that vinyl top and fix that rust before it becomes a bigger problem. as for the rest it looks to be in pretty good shape, now where are the pics of the underside and the engine.

If it were mine I would remove the vinyl top,repair the rusted areas and replace the vinyl top.Can't beat a original car.Just my 2 cents!

lol the 2 door is the one i posted about in cars for sale..... it on the list i cant get ahold of the owner tho i keep trying. and for pics of the engine and undercarage will have to wait till it cames back from the shop.... and the vinyl is going to come off havent decided if it will go back but after i paint it i will make my decision on that.

Aside form the usual rust around the back window (which 90% of sedans do have) it looks to be a very nice car.The interior looks great too.

the back window as some surface rust but is actually solid believe it or not lol

When it comes time to repaint just go to most any reputable paint dealer and they can computer match the color either off a sample if your just spot painting or off the factory paint code....Ive had pretty good luck with sherwin williams automotive paints. There is a paint code chart on the Eaglepedia if I remember correctly.
