Why the rust on the hood and trunk? Must have been driven some in winter what with the salt crust on the driver carpet.

That may be nature of the color. Oldsmobile called it "Palm Green" and it was 1) bad about fading which this one definitely is, and 2) difficult to spot paint in the field. Once "dead" It also doesn't respond well to paint correction. So this car pretty much has to have paint.

 

The floormat looks dried out to me. Some of the colored mats were worse for that than others.

No, it’s rust.

No, it’s salt. Being I’ve lived my whole life in MN, I’m VERY familiar with salt and rust.

The driver's door seam has rust.  Still, it's a bargain compared to buying a newer econobox.

Listing is deleted so apparently its sold. My dad bought a new 71 2dr 98 Luxury sedan. It was a beautiful car to drive.
