I like the color, personally I am a fan of "Burnt Sienna" or whatever.

Appears to be Cinnamon Firemist, color code 95. Had two, a Convertible and a Fleetwood. I believe only seven Firemist colors were offered in 1970.

Bryan, I liked "Burnt Sienna" (a 1973 Cadillac Color code 68) so much that when I purchased a "Dark Walnut" 1970 Convertible, incomplete restoration in primer, I decided to paint it one of my favorite colors, 1973 "Burnt Sienna". Not usually fond of color changes, but with this one I have no regrets.

If it is only 35k miles for that money, it's a buy... but it could be 135k and could still present and run very well.  These were durable, and if garaged and out of the weather, maintained a great appearance.

Judging from the steering wheel I would believe the mileage the problem I would be afraid of from seeing under the hood is frame and floor rust. In the 1980's I remember going to see an estate sale car in Rochester, New York a 1968 Sedan DeVille 4 door pillared sedan in dark blue with less mileage than this car that was perfect except for the frame on both sides behind the front wheels was so rotted that if you would have put it on a lift it would have cracked in two.
