Just 52K miles, with many areas all original.

For those acquainted with CLC judging, how would this car likely do in Preservation Class?

I like how in the fresh start vid the guy touches the power steering pump to show it's cool. Lol

The fact of the engine compartment having been resprayed (incorrectly at that) significantly cuts into the car's qualification for Past President's Preservation, IMHO. Also there are a number of areas of older refinishing work that has since deteriorated along with significant wear/deterioration of the interior. There's also a rust hole in the shape of a slot along the top inside of the left front fender.  However, much weight is given to age with respect to visual defects etc and what's acceptable for a given model year is at the discretion of the past presidents.
