First, you would need to see the data plate. That top just doesn't look right.
Fillers have been replaced. Rear chrome finish moulding has not been replaced on the taillight bezels.
Pin-striping is incorrect in the way that it follows the body lines.
Incorrect chrome finish moulding around trunk lid.
Hood hinges need attention.
Incorrect whitewalls.
Incorrect license plate/fuel refiller color. Should be gray/silver.
Looks like sun damage to the dash and the steering wheel may need to be replaced, unless it is covered for protection.
Incorrect floor mats.
What is the toggle switch for in the lower dash area?
Passenger side upper door panel has been recovered.
No door courtesy lights.

That is the end of the pictures. Need lots more, but in reality, for $19k, it's a decent looking car that wouldn't take a lot to make a nice driver out of. Assuming it hasn't rolled over to the 6th digit.

The condition of the front seat makes me think that the Speedo has rolled over the 100,000 mile mark.
