Some rust in floors - one hole that I remember in driver's floorpan
Rear bumper rusted through
Rockers are wavy - some bodywork done in the 90s
Tires are 30 years old and pretty much shot
Pulls to left when braking
Safety-Spectrum Speedometer is broken
Overall, it's a nice entry level Olds. It does need some work to be a driver. There is some rust, but it's solid for a midwest car. The motor runs really smooth. I made an offer I was comfortable with, and I didn't lowball him. He's firm on the price, or at least he was last August.

Good luck to whoever buys!
