Here's his car:

"This is a real California Special, listed in the registry and marti report available. It has a rebuilt Ford engine installed by the Ford dealer, new radiator and the carpet is new but otherwise is completely stock. It was originally sold in Seattle. It a C code 289 with C4, power steering and the correct grill, lights and tail pieces for a California Special. Everything works and this car drives very nicely. I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere in the country. It is one unique California Special because it has parchment interior with a bench seat and its very comfortable. The stock color is the Sunlit gold you see. I have repaired rust in both doors by welding in patch panels and it is completely rust free. This is a nice car and wins trophies at local shows, but its not perfect or I would sell it for a lot more. $16,500, email me. thanks for looking."
I saw this car recently in person and it's not perfect, as he says, but it's extremely nice and has no rust. The engine compartment also shows well. I am totally NOT in the market but almost had to consider buying it as I liked it so well. He is a very nice and knowledgeable guy, too.
