Cool find but that's gonna be a few bucks and a bit of time to get them road worthy. Will it be worth the investment? They must think so.

They have been awakened, serviced and are ready to go. The headliners are said to droop a bit, but they are otherwise showroom fresh, and original except batteries and filters.

Headliners are an easy fix, but every rubber part on the car is suspect.
