What the photos show
- Black paint is glossy, the gold decals and pinstripes look crisp, and it sits on gold snowflake wheels — the full Bandit spec, T-tops included.
- Engine bay is photographed: a blue Pontiac V8 under the shaker scoop that looks original and undisturbed rather than restored — aged hoses and factory labels consistent with a preserved car.
- Camel interior is the story: front seats still wrapped in protective plastic with tags attached, floors plastic-covered, rear bench unwrapped and looking excellent; 4-speed manual on the console.
- The low-mileage and documentation wording is printed on the lead photo by the seller — the photos support a preserved car, but the miles stand or fall on the paperwork, not the pictures.
- Underside doesn't appear in the 16 viewed — can't judge the floors or subframes.
Money: at $135,675 the photos genuinely support a survivor-grade car; the ask still hinges on verifying the claimed low miles and window sticker in person, plus a lift look underneath.
