Very nice inside
The paint is holding up well but it is not perfect.
Steering wheel has a couple thin cracks, but the dash looks excellent.
Very presentable!
There are a few small bubbles starting along the lower edge on the passenger side down low.
Nothing serious, just superficial.
The seller states that the drivers side door needs to be color matched and repainted as it is off a shade.
You can see the color difference here in this shot.
Nice fit to the front hood, car has never been hit in the nose like most Ghias seem to have.

Nice fit to the engine lid as well..a very straight car.
