The car looks really nice. I like how it says “one owner”.  It was sold new ~50 years ago and the guys in the pictures weren’t even a thought then.  If they took off the steering wheel cover and put the hubcaps back on it would present a lot better.

It's gotta be old Uncle Jack's car that they are trying to help Aunt Mary sell after his passing. They just "duded it up" a little so it would appeal more to the younger crowd.

And remove the dice.

For a start - it is not '73. And of course this is no Lincoln either. This car has 5mph rear bumper and rim blow steering wheel so it is '74. Car looks really nice. Judging by condition of the seats and driver's door armrest this really could be a low miles car. Steering wheel cover is there for a purpose - rim blow steering wheels has a tendency to deteriorate. This is the case on my car too.

Cant tell if the guys are cleaning the car or stripping it?

[Angelfish]

They got the hubcaps and the license plate at least.  Pretty sure one of them is the guy that pulled me out of an intersection when the Mercedes stalled.

Yeah, those guys make the car look like a flipper special. They may be dressed casually because they were working on the car, but to paraphrase the old real estate adage, "presentation, presentation, presentation."
