How much do they want for it??
Is the top ok? Send pics of the interior. Especially the front door cards, rockers, and other water intrusion places.

Dont have interior pix yet. I will ask my pal that was with me. He may have captured interior pix.
Door rockers looked good. A tiny spot on bottom front corner of driver door. It has been ion storage for 15 years...... The white flecks on the car are from the warehouse ceiling insulation flaking off. It does not appear that there is a leak in the roof where the car sits.....

Top was "just replaced" when parked.....15 years ago. He did have a cover on it so the white flakes are not on the top.

It looks like all the pieces are there. The windshield appears to be intact-another $1500 item if it needs to be replaced.
My parts book shows colors of tops as black, tan, white and green. I don't think I have ever seen all these colors but if the top is good, go with it! The cylinder head is wrong for this car. It should have the 359 aluminum head. Many of these were replaced with the 327 head, so it is not uncommon to see this. It looks like this one is not bolted down. I think the Caribbean should have a flashier color so if it needs a repaint anyway, you can do whatever you want. It kind of depends on the interior color
