Man, gotta love that color! Very nice looking 73 T in NorCal. No affiliation.

Nice looking car and color.

I still consider myself a novice, but I've never understood how this ("It has zero rust and never had any, it is unrestored") jibes with the picture of the seat hinge. I've never seen such a rusty seat hinge on a totally rust free car. I don't get how this can be.

Come on, novice. That's now called 'patina' ...

That's a newer headliner. I guess that and a respray and an engine rebuild and a new radio don't count as restored.
Seat recliners aside (which looked an awful lot like mine did), it does look like a very nice car.

I think that this is how many of the painted seat hinges look. They get battered by the seat belt clasps.

Meh.. that color is OK I suppose

I think there has been some "creative license" in the listing description.
Those seat hinges are probably a sign of previous neglect now covered with inky blue paint.

I see no indications of a repaint...

a lovely color indeed, I bought this 73 sunroof T MFI born gold with brown interior but color changed to Oxford/Dalmation blue. I think the color change was done before the "sticking to originality" became what is the rightful thing to do. in this case it was a good choice as it contrasts nicely with the brown interior.

Hard to see obvious signs of a repaint from the pics, but the seller states "The hood, fenders and doors have been resprayed to a high standard."

Beautiful car Richard. Are you sure that's #239 Oxford/Dalmatian? Looks a little light to me. It's a tricky color to capture with a digital camera.
