1965 Buick Wildcat

• Maroon paint looks even from the front, both sides and rear but not deep-gloss, and the seller says it needs paint — budget for paint.
• A close-up shows rust breaking through at the lower door / rocker edge — budget for rust repair, and check for more.
• The body otherwise looks straight from every angle — no major dent is visible here.
• Front and rear chrome and grilles look bright and complete — no re-chroming cost is visible here.
• The black convertible top looks intact and taut, with a clear-looking rear window — no top replacement is suggested by what's shown.
• Road wheels and tires look presentable on all corners — no immediate tire spend is shown.
• The engine bay is now shown and looks aged and grimy, with surface corrosion around the bay — budget for a mechanical and cosmetic tidy-up.
• The trunk floor is now shown with widespread surface rust — budget for treatment and check whether it is surface-only.
• No interior photo in the set — the cabin's condition can't be judged from what's shown.
• The underside is not shown in any photo — frame and floor condition can't be judged from what's shown, which matters with rust already visible above.

Money: at $19,500 the fuller set is less kind than the rear-only view — visible rocker rust, a tired engine bay and a rusty trunk floor all point to spend on top of paint, and the interior and underside are still must-verify items before paying.
