Seller needs to be a little more ambiguous and take more than a few pics. Is there a trans and necessary 4 speed parts or is it just an engine with the wrong carb and missing most of the parts needed. I would definitely be asking some questions before bidding on this one. Car appears to be very solid other than the custom marker lights in the rear quarters and a few dents. I would have to say that it appears to be a real GS,but the parts are getting very difficult to find.

 It is hard to tell color from the pictures. Looking at the cowl tag, it isn't suppose to have the black top though.

Kind of unusual to be a Freemount car and only 2 paint codes!? Also has rear defogger! What's up with the pulleys? Or is the water pump bent? Or is it just the picture?
